We have a "business man" at the helm, and decisions will be based on "business" practices. Targeting over 200,000 old people who don't have political clout, or the money to hire lobbyists, was an easy tactic for them to save some money. Everything that they do will be governed by the "bottom line". The only good to come of this will be to shut up those morons who insist that having a business man in office will make our country great again. With this bunch it is anything for a buck, if they end up with that buck.
