MANTECA, Calif. — Karen Boyles lives back in her childhood home in Manteca, California. She lives a simple life. "I'm 78 years young," she said, smiling. (Snip) Boyles is one of the thousands of California seniors depending solely on social security. "Although we do pay into taxes every year, we buy houses, we buy cars, washing machines, groceries," she said. "We are paying taxes and we have paid our taxes in the past." She is in the group excluded from the state's new inflation relief program. "I feel very cheated and let down," she said. Boyle said it's no relief for

This is a perfect example of "The Socialist Strategy."
Get the people totally dependent on whatever the Gov't decides to give them, then threaten to cut it off if they displease the Gov't in any way - such as complaining (which will be detected by The Truth Czar.)
Or by voting the wrong way (you don't think that "secret ballots" are really secret, do you?)

She's old. She is a useless eater to some of the Enlightened Ones. Unless you are one of the Chosen like Pelosi, once you get over 70, you don't matter to them. They are like Scrooge: “If they would rather die,” said Scrooge, “they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population.”

The government wants us to die. Then they don’t have to pay social security or Medicare.

It’s the communist way! If you’re no longer a contributor to the workforce, the sooner you starve or die, the more money for the worker bees and their elite masters.

Maybe she should demand a sex change. Get the money and change her mind just before surgery.

Seniors tend to be conservative, worked, and paid taxes. That is why they were left out. They are not Democrats.

I notice that the article doesn’t tell us her party affiliation. If she voted for Newsom, she brought this on herself.

There is no doubt inflation is destroying seniors. A true calculation of inflation would be most useful when social security has its yearly adjustment, not the phony number that is used. AMAC and AARP should be all over that one!

Socialism turns formerly free people into beggers and, 'beggars can't be choosers,' eh, California? (-Harsh, but true.)

Capitalism has lifted millions out of poverty. Socialism has enslaved millions into poverty. History does not lie.

Inflation is especially difficult for most retirees because they make downward spending adjustments as part of retirement.
That means there is less room to make more downward adjustments for Biden! Biden! Biden! inflation. As a retiree, I can attest to that.

Excellent idea Poster 1. Except if don’t look black, brown or something in between you will get the proper scrutiny the regular illegals don’t get. If that happened in large numbers they would likely profile the white ones much more.

Remember Ezekiel Emanuel's "Death Curve" and his assertion everyone should die at 75? He was an advisor to Obama; he is now an advisor to Biden.
They want old people to die. It's part of the population control agenda

Sorry to hear about your problems. Question, did you vote for the creep in the WH? Did you vote for Pelousi's nephew who believes he should run for the WH???? In that case I do not feel sorry for you. Otherwise follow #1's suggestion. Come in illegally, tell them where you live, you'll get a free ride, probably a new car? A new house? Who knows? Just watch who you are voting for the next time!!

Seniors don't typically vote for Democrats, so no money for you.

Those who need inflation relief the most are excluded. If only she were an illegal immigrant she would be drowning in state aid.
