@ohio_cyn they talk like we disabled seniors got money to burn on our last raise. It was roughly nine cents on the dollar. Food prices raised 100 percent. Gas is still over 4.00 a gallon. We are actually poorer this year.

@Horrrflmlvr @ohio_cyn they can actually take away your SSI in some cases.
@Cryspeg @ohio_cyn yes, i did not get ssi.
but my dear late mother (rip mama) always had a way of hiding cash.
If i earned more froom a side hustle and it was a 100 or up to 345, she would take it and one of her bills would vanish.
