I applaud the idea that the elderly making less than 50K a year would pay no taxes. In a nation where fully 2/3rds of corporations pay no taxes, holding up seniors who have little ability to work a third job, and who cannot simply sell off assets which comprise what little security net Murika has left, we either find a way to become *humane* to our people again, or we will earn our sobriquet "generation kill."
I would go even further and apply this to the disabled, who pay more for medicine and health care. Not just the totally disabled, but anyone who has a chronic condition requiring chronic treatment.
Why? Because we are either a national community, or we aren't a nation at all, merely a tool of corporations to secure profits for the investing class.
And as far as I am concerned, the investing class has a big fucking bill due for abetting the destruction of the middle class. And the invoice has been sitting in the mailbox for a while now.
