Certainly one concern for our organization and for many others is having adequate living income for all people, whether older or of whatever age.
Many people in our country live in poverty. Being able to access an adequate income means being able to participate, having a good quality of life, having a choice in the kind of food you purchase, and being a contributing member of the community in a better way than you could if you didn't have an adequate income. If you can afford transportation, services, and purchasing the things you need in your life, certainly that is contributing big time to the economy.
