Should Donald Trump be elected president, America’s elders will lose their Social Security benefits and entitlements.
Elders like me — an 82-year-old — depend on Social Security as our only source of income. Take it away and we will probably not be able to survive.
Children and grandchildren whose relatives receive these benefits must vote for Joe Biden. Think of the recipients’ future and what’s needed to continue their lives.
I’m standing up for all elders — voters have until Nov. 5 to decide. We don’t want to be thrown under the bus and forgotten. As the writer who said not all of us just follow the party line, we can vote “intelligently,” I agree (“Snap Democratic hold by finding viable candidates,” Star-Advertiser, Letters, March 13).
