text: I don't even know where to begin.
  I live in Public Housing, HUD subsidized, and in Lane County it is mostly senior and disabled Americans who live here. My apartment complex lost three people in two weeks as their serious struggles with age and disease came to an end. My complex has 150 apartments. I suspect many are as worried as I about their health care, delivered by Medicare, Obamacare, or other systems. 
  The building was built in the mid-60's, and needs a lot of work to keep the rain and cold out. But Ben Carson and HUD are saying there is room for a $6 billion dollar cut in money available for renovations and other HUD programs. 
  In Lane County the need for housing is so great the list to get Public Housing is closed, as it got over five years long. 
  To live in a golden palace working very hard to give to the rich and take from the poor is pretty much the definition of Republicanism these days, though it is hard to understand Christians cheering them on.
