Nurse: Attention, please, elderpersons!! Federal Government says new Medicare prescription drug program is simple as board game. Prepare to roll dice!!
It says VA benefits are good for another turn. Prepare to spend that turn sitting on the hardest chairs in creation for hours after your appointment time because the Dr. was overbooked.
Ha! My so-called ongoing nonsense with the IRS: Owed & paid my back taxes ..apparently I over paid!? IRS sends a refund check and all the while.. Still mailing letters about a problem that has been resolved…” Govt. Waste”
I would like to make a comment about make the system simpler, but I know so many who seem to love our system of overcharged meds. Way too much confusing paperwork that you know we are paying way too much extra money for. Because socialism is a dirty word.

You can change to another Part D plan between October 15 and December 7. Call your local SHIP office for an appointment.

I remember this place. They should install a bridge at the start where I can jump off and leave them one less geezer to deal with.

This was semi funny the first time I saw it, now I’m in the system and it’s not funny. It’s still a joke, but not a funny one. Sigh
