        "Being 80 years old, with a government willing to dispose of you because you are no longer an asset, the elderly man tries for the government's 3 squares, healthcare, and a room program for the surplus elderly population." Fixed your report for you!

        This headline alone speaks volumes about this country. Why would an 80 yr old need to rob a bank when the economy is doing so well?

        So he has a guaranteed place to sleep, medical care and three meals a day? Old people can't live on the Social Security they paid into their entire lives anymore.

        If they decrease funding for Medicare & Soc sec we will see more of this. When avg ss check is $1250 minus the $135 for Medicare & minus cost of supplement average chk barely keeps food on table & lights on

        We don't know his story but he must have been desperate to resort to bank robbery.

        He can't afford to live on the few bucks SS gives him, had to find a way to supplement his income. I do feel sorry for him.
