February 7, 2010, 4:24pm (report abuse)we are a 82/86 couple and have paid for LTH since 1992..with all the increased costs and no increase in SSI or pensions ..or anything it seems...we need help and this surely would do so. the Greatest Generation is now the Forgotten Generation..we have been responsible citizens but it's not paying off.
