Since the Fed. Govt. will not give seniors help, to return to college, or for that matter, help on anything ,because of your previous income, they do not understand that we live in today's world that cannot be based on the past, when it comes to expenses. I do not want anyone to just hand anything over, but at least give some credit to seniors, as they have, in some ways, made things better for all of us, today. Seniors need more care as they age, please do not throw them by the wayside.
