Pretty sad. They think WE are "dis-informing" the elderly and scaring them into thinking their benefits will be cut...

1. that is one of the talking points...
opponents of piratization who complain that cutting benefits is, well, cutting benefits, are just scaring grandma. Thats bad. We shouldn't scare grandma with the truth. Better that grandma should just get a short check. That way she won't be scared, she will just be PISSED AS HELL. And hungry, or short on her perscriptions, or will have to cut the lifesaver service.
