Terry-- I can't get the Yahoo! news article link to open, but I see on the front page of my Sunday paper that the income guidelines for my state have been set at a $17,000 threshold for a family of four--that's at 150% of the federal poverty level for that family size. In my area a 2800 sq. foot pre-owned home runs $250,000. I doubt there's anyone eligible for LIHEAP in my area living in a 3000 sq. ft. ranch with the rare exception of a few elderly with paid-off homes (assuming they've got a couple of dependents in the home.) And then after paying about $4,500 in real estate taxes that leaves about $12,500 for living expenses which puts them firmly in poverty level territory. I'm watching Dick Cheney on CNN right now. He talking energy policy. He just expressed unconditional support for low income energy assistance programs...you bet he does. Energy/utility guys love this program. Without it they simply don't get paid when accounts go delinquent in severely cold weather. Here's the funding history: ncat.org Notice LIHEAP (as we know it) is a Reagan era program.
