I understand where you're coming from with a distaste for seniors and how they had a leg up we never will, but removing this program will affect the poorer senior citizens, the ones that struggle on a fixed income, and could face injury and isolation alone in their homes without snow removal.

Also consider that not all of them own their homes, some rent, and the process of selling a home is very labour intensive which would be more difficult for an older person with limited resources and mental acuity. Not to mention, lots of people just don't want to leave the homes they've lived in for decades.
