Our investment accounts were wiped out because of the actions of this government. We live on Social Security and whatever pitiful retitement check we get. I already watch seniors refuse medications at pharmacies because they can't afford it, or admit to taking 1/2 dose to make it last longer. Getting rid of Medicare Advantage, and now sayin F#@& YOU to retired military is a slap in the face to those who secure Americas freedom. The budget deal was to cut DEFENSE SPENDING! NOT TRICARE! Because you all couldn't reach an agreement to stop the cut is your problem, so don't take it out on the people that CAN LEAST AFFORD IT! Sure, raise fees on those that can least afford it.

I understand that the Government needs to make cuts but the way they are going it is going to cause more harm then they think. With no raises to people's pay checks and you raise our medical to where we can't afford it and then your going to complain when we no longer have medical because we can't afford it. They will no longer get people to even consider coming into the military. You do your time and risk your life for what? I just think their should be another way. Canada is doing it right maybe I will move their and not have to worry about it. My spouse is retired military and we both work for the government.
