About SCC

Uncategorized

This Weblog (BLOG) is a communications component of the Senior Citizens Consortium (SCC) organization.  The SCC organization has been established for the express purpose of fostering greater interaction between mature individuals who have reached that greatest title of Senior Citizen and addressing those issues that are within our capability to affect in some small fashion.

The SCC organization is a NOT-FOR-PROFIT organization and is NOT a commercial entity in any way, shape or fashion.  Contrary to what the comments (false of course) had to say about us on another web site populated by both seniors and pretenders to be seniors.  SCC focuses our attentions on social interaction among our members and our guests.  We will host gatherings of members in regional locations and an annual SCC conference in locations across the country.

We also provide a forum for opinions and commentary, with OUR moderation people made up of seniors who provide Peer Review moderation, rather than the paid, YOUNG moderators elsewhere who have no point of reference for senior opinions or issues.

The blog will contain comments, opinions and information regarding issues that are important to the members of the SCC organization.  For example we have established an advocacy issue program for the implementation of a Single Payer Universal Health Care program for the United States and all of its citzens.

 Visit our organizational components, read and comment on our blog.  Take a look at our member forum.  We welcome all mature and relevant comments or observations.   Join us if you are a mature/senior individual, we welcome all.

However, you should also understand, that we tolerate no harsh invective, we do not allow personal insults or slurs against people, posters.  If you wish to engage in that sort of thing, there are other locations where you will fit in.

We welcome debate, diverse opinions, and exchange of ideas and life experiences.

We do not tolerate vicious commentary, insults, bigotry in any form, or childish claptrap.  Trust that if any of this type of commentary is posted, it shall be removed forthwith!!  We do not suffer fools gladly.

Executive Director – SCC

On this page, we will recognize those people who have made a contribution to our organization, through posting an opinion or other informational entries to our blog.

 Among our white paper type bloggers, we are proud to welcome

NEactuary – this individual has posted thousands of words regarding programs that directly and indirectly affect us all.  His grasp of Social Security and Universal Health Care issues is truly amazing.  We look forward to more data from our very own NEactuary. 

You can also see some of his stuff on the AARP Issues and Elections Forum.  

You might also be interested in his paper on the VA Formulary and the lies/myths that the far right wingers keep putting out there to dissuade us from fighting for improvement to the senior citizen’s prescription drug bill Plan D.

Harvey – posted an article regarding a boycott that seniors had planned for the AARP forums.  After suffering numersous biased indignities, several of these posters decided to promote a boycott over the unfair banning of three very strong posters who just happened to be slightly left of center in their attitudes. 

Harvey’s article had gotten this blog and the Senior Citizens Consortium in the public eye for the first time since the organization was created almost a year ago,. 

It also got an interesting reaction from the AARP moderators. Their comment/response was filled with lies, and moderate falsehoods, but they recognized who we were.  Not that we really wanted any recognition from them, however. 

Harvey has said that he will pay more attention to senior issues in the future.  Ergo, his recent blog entry regarding the issue of Single Payer Universal Health Care.
