That article ****es me off because they just have to throw the GODDAMN senior slant into it.
Maybe some of you old folks can help me with this but when you were young were you promised that you will get all sorts of subsidies and discounts as a senior so that you could save less for your retirement. Why do these seniors always feel entitled to special treatment. (But you will sure see them up in arms if someone else re: immigrants gets some sort of special treatment)
I need a politician to say F you seniors.
Sorry for the rant.

I have a feeling that your tune will change dramatically once you become a senior!
A lot of seniors have fixed incomes, and in case you are unaware, they grew up in a time much, much, different than this one. World Wars, the Depression... and you're complaining because they get a discount? They didn't exactly have the same oppurunities afforded today, if you bothered to talk to a senior you might not appear so ignorant.
I don't know how you can compare senior citizens to immigrants. It's not like seniors can just go out and get a job, they've worked their whole lives. Does the concept of inflation ring a bell? While their incomes stay the same?
I have a feeling that you do not have any grandparents, which is sad and unfortunate for you.
