We need to remember our seniors. We need to remember who they are, where they came from. We need to remember the kinds of work they have done in order to attain the age that they have. My mother needs prescription drugs, and I think that what we have to look at, we need to look at everybody's prescription capsule, the container, and on the container is a label that says expiration date. We need to have a good prescription drug to address all the seniors of this country so that we do not need to worry about them, that they do not need to worry about whether prescription drugs are going to be too expensive or not. We need to take care of business, and we need to do it soon.
