Isn't it sad that American seniors are NOT being helped?

I have a relative that will be 75 the 23rd of Dec. She tries to live on less than $700 a month. Could you do it? I think it is sad that we can give trillions of dollars to bail out big companies, and pad the bank accounts of FAT CATS at the so called, "top" - but none of our seniors get the help that they need to have a half way decent life. Someone stole my sister-in-law's clothing, and even her blankets. She told me she has one old holy blanket to cover up with at night, and her trailer is never warm enough. She's had her electric cut off in the past few months, and her phone disconnected as well. She's had to pay the re-connect fees, which makes things worse. You'd think that the utility companies would figure it out that if they didn't have the money to pay their bill, paying extra re-connect fees will only make the situation worse. Many don't worry about these things, but you know - - one day you will be 65 or older, and those that are young now, better get to doing something to change the laws and help system for the aged, cause you're getting closer to being in that group every day.
