There is a decision up for vote that is going to affect all of us on disability and MFIP.State Rep. Doug Magnus and his committee will probably vote against the bill to help us get back what was taken from us on S.S.I. and getting MFIP. Why is it that people on a low to no income, some making less than $1,000 a month, keep having things taken from them? We didn’t ask to be disabled and not able to work as hard to make ends meet every month, but to have money taken every month makes it impossible at times. The children are the ones who suffer.It seems like the rich get richer, while the less fortunate go without. And a lot of it is just the basics of life, like food, shelter and clothing we can’t always get. Then they wonder why there are so many people on the streets, the suicides, murder and stealing. The people who make decisions on things that affect our livelihood should take a cut in pay, not get raises. If all the government workers, the senators, etc. would take cuts in their pay, there would be no need to take from us.Sheila JonesMagnolia
