FYI I am disabled on Social Security and if you consider living on $600 - $1200 (the average social security check) a month being taken care of then you sure have an interesting point of being taken care of. I pay close to $200 a month just in copays & premiums (deducted from my social security check). I don't even qualify for extra help from Social security because of my husbands Piddly unemployment check. (the company he used to work for went Belly up)

Several Medications I take are only available in Name Brand & can not be substituted due to my health condition I am very limited in the Medications I can take.
Go get em girl...I too am on social sec disability from an on the job injury plus other health issues and I can definatly support your statement that we on social sec are not very well taken care of...yes we might have insurance but there are co-pays and medicine costs that still must be paid out of pocket and of course there is always the mortgage and utilities etc.
so yes there are many people who are being let down and under cared for in our system that need help but sadly there is not much more help available.
