From Social Security. Nothing else stayed put. Their mortgage payments, their rent, their food, their cost of living all increased, but for them they were stuck. These are the people that have worked all of their lives. I think we have a moral obligation to do so. Id love to hear from our witnesses what they think about that. Nd start with dr. Vindini. It dr. Candy . Dr. Candy i completely agree.
