If I work then Hubby loses Medi-Cal, and all his drug benefits. Never mind I have to go with him to all doctor's appointments to be his "ears".
Empirical evidence shows that people are buying less due to inflation and higher oil/gas prices. There are lots of seniors and disabled people on fixed incomes in this area, and I know they have been hit, because we have. Oh, and then there is our $200 bill for running the AC ($500 before low-income discount) during California's heat wave. Hubby has to have the AC due to his health condition, otherwise he risks another trip to the ER in the "sparkley truck".
