Robert Shannon: Thanks, Obama, for that extra 5 bucks – can you spare it?
Open letter to Mr. Barack Obama: Thank you, good buddy for the $5 monthly raise in my Social Security (whoops, I’m sorry – welfare check). But did you have to take it back for Medicare? Now I can’t enjoy an extra cup of coffee. Oh, and my grocery bill has gone up by $20 a month this year. Enjoy your luxurious retirement.
Robert Shannon, Modesto
