Exactly. It's often elderly people or people with health problems who live in low-income housing.

    And low-income sole parents with kids. What do you think this does to them? More days off work because of child or parental illness, doing homework in very cold or very hot rooms, psychological effects, etc, etc. Politicians from privileged backgrounds who make such thoughtless statements are a blight.
