SENIORS RELIEVED FROM UTILITY BILLS

A citizen who reaches the age of 60 and has worked for 25 years or more should have utility services on the house. Such a person has paid income tax for all those years and now is aged. It seems just that one would be set free from the struggle to provide for the basics of living utilities, such as water, an essential to life, electricity and gas to keep warm and to cook and eat. These are the fundamentals and we all ought to have them assured despite ability to pay. To provide these fundamentals to those who have contributed to the nation in taxes paid for years is just and will prevent such horrendous deaths such as the 90 year old man who froze to death because his electric bill had not been paid. He froze to death in his home without any heat because the electric utility company had cut it off in the midst of deep snow and freezing temperatures. That is about the most repulsive thing a nation would do to a citizen. Enough said.
