        Carson wants 87 year olds to live on the street, while taxpayers spend $300 million per year for Trump to travel to his own resorts.

        Well to some degree, he's gotta point...if you're an "abled body", you should be working when you can. The more you get the more you want.

        Many take advantage of the system and that's the problem. Government assistance should be temporary not a permanent crutch everyone pays for
