What if it's not a matter of scaling back how many Tim Horton's coffees you have a week, but which prescriptions you can afford to fill, or whether or not you can pay rent or buy food or retire before you hit 80 years old? What you apparently consider small change may not be so small to others people and is not a matter of 'cutting back on coffee'. ! And btw, the refugees that were brought here were safe in refugee camps in Jordan and not in danger of dying every day.
