Good Point- that the utility companies love energy assistance too.

The candidates love it, the public loves it, and even the corporations love it. Gosh, it 's almost as good as a FREE LUNCH. Isn't our government grand to give us all this free lunch. <g>

I'm not sure if the aging population will make any difference to the program. Seems like most senior citizens that I know have way more money than they'll ever run out of- unless inflation robs them. That's what I would worry about if I were them.

Dave has a real good grip on the political situation:

It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest. We address ourselves, not to their humanity but to their self-love, and never talk to them of our necessities but of their advantages.
