SENIORS HAVE BEEN FORGOTTEN
At this Federal election there is great discontent with the two major parties by many of the voting public.
Many see them as one party! One third of those surveyed wished there was another choice besides the Labor and Liberal leaders.
Speaking of discontent senior Australians have been forgotten by both the major parties with their election promises as well as the Federal Budget.
While there have been promises of more tax cuts, which most seniors won't see again because they have pensions, age care costs in nursing homes and home care are about to go up for many seniors.
Perhaps it's time senior voters forgot to preference both major parties on the white Senate voting paper and voted for sensible minor parties and independents.
The promise of a free to air TV channel for seniors would be a small enticement to gain many of the senior votes at this late stage, which could in fact change the result of the elections.
