I honestly never thought this would gain this much steam but here we are and it is just wild to see so many people waking up to how unfair these thresholds really are to our seniors. It feels like the tide is finally turning because people are actually listening now and that kind of momentum is exactly what we need to force their hand on this mess.

Disgraceful treatment of people who built this country. Disgusting.
The threshold is way too low. Needs to be looked at again asap because people are going to end up in real trouble.
My parents worked their whole lives and saved a little bit for their old age. Now they get punished for it? Absolute disgrace.
The cost of meds these days is unreal. How are they expected to live on 240 a week when the bills keep going up and up.
We need to protect our seniors not penalize them for having a tiny private pension. My neighbor is terrified she wont be able to afford her heart meds.
