mcgill1 Hello bbsr. Here in Britain our old people are treated by both this and successive Government's as a burden to Society as a whole, not only in residential care, but also in State pensions provision. I agree with your sentiments entirely.

How do you decide on who is the right person to Vote for? Do you just choose by who is the most popular, or because you are a die hard Democrat, because of what they stand for, etc? With this being the major Election for...

Poverty among British and American Seniors.

mcgill1 @mcgill1 (49) 11 Feb 08

There are 1 in 5 British Seniors living below the poverty line on a very inadaquate pension from the state. One question, should this kind of treatment be tolerated in our "civilised countries" ?

mcgill1 Hello, may I ask what country you are in ? People tolerate everything in the UK where I write from. Apathy is the British disease.

mcgill1 Hi, there's nothing wrong in being a loner, all you have to do is what "you want to do", and not what other people want you to do, or tell you to do. Always let your conscience and your heart be you guide as the song says.
