Discounts, huge ones too, they paid their dues. They should also be given priority when they go to conduct business in public places, especially the very frail ones. I noticed this for the first time week before last when I visited Trinidad. I had to go to the telephone company with my dad who is in his late 80's, and I saw frail people and pregnant women being attended to ahead of others. Now I know this may not go down well with all, but I have no problem with that. Also, I must point out that this was not the case every where I went, but most places.

How about MONEY? I'd cruise more often if I had more money. One way to make that happen would be for governments to lower, or eliminate income tax for those 65 and over, or under a certain income when retired.

Can't say it here!!

Just accept me for who I am and what I am, and don't try to mold me into what you think I should be.
