 Jose\nBirthday cake will be served\nOther visuals and participatory events: 
 Cat food pyramid alongside birthday cake ("Will seniors be eating cake or 
 cat food?" referring to the meat choice left for many senior citizens 
 scraping by)\n**Raging Grannies will lead a singalong**\n\nSocial Security 
 is 75 years old this month. Medicare is 45 years old.\nYet these essential 
 programs are in danger.  The federal Bipartisan Deficit Commission is 
 preparing recommendations targeting Social Security and Medicare.  Some 
 proposals being considered are raising the retirement age, reducing 
 benefits, and privatizing Social Security.  \n\nWe have a better idea: 
 close corporate tax loopholes, tax Wall St. financial deals, and roll back 
 tax cuts for the wealthy.\n\nSponsored by CARA (California Alliance of 
 Retired Americans), California Nurses Association, South Bay Labor Council, 
 Edge, FORUM – \nFor more information call 408-254-3311\n\n
