Title: Is Obama Purposefully Trying to Kill Off the Elderly and Disabled?
Topic: Senior Care
Discussed by Dan Weber
with Association of Mature American Citizens (AMAC) (www.AMAC.us)

Every day in America, approximately 10,000 people turn 65. This trend is predicted for the next decade. There are roughly 65 million people acting as care givers for the elderly, sick, or disabled and almost 15 million people care for someone who has Alzheimer’s or Dementia.

Dan Weber is the President and founder of the Association of Mature American Citizens. He is here to discuss Obamacare, long-term health care, and Social Security benefits.
Since the “experts”* decided to coerce… I mean force…. I mean require… I mean convince the average American that they needed healthcare coverage, they had to cut the budget in other areas, specifically to Medicare. The “experts”* cut $22 BILLION (which is 14% of the entire budget) for long-term, home health care services. Dan says this absolutely unacceptable; just outrageous.

AMAC is actively fighting Obamacare. They are actively contacting the Elected Officials – all of them. Now that the Republicans will be in control of the House and the Senate, will there be positive changes? Dan sure hopes so!

Millions of Americans are starting to see and experience the devastating effects of Obamacare, especially those who take care of the elderly or disabled. Dan says it is a tragedy. He also says that within TWO decades, the Social Security account will be bled dry. The longer we wait, the harder it will be to fix it.

We must help AMAC fight the “Experts”*. Log on to www.AMAC.us  for more information.


* “Experts”: Meaning our super smart and dedicated Elected Officials. .
