People are complaining about government furloughs and how much money they are losing. Many of us senior citizens and others have to live on less than $10,000 per year, yet we are expected to pay the high prices for food, medications and everything — plus buy insurances.

We cannot do it and must go without many things the younger generations feel they must have. We must give up all non-essentials to make ends meet for survival.

Things will get tougher since the nation has voted for the death culture and put God and moral values out of our lives in many cases. Only when people repent and return to God will things get better.
