Former heart donor Mike Mulvaney is saying: "Well, Chuck, I don't agree with your premise, that's all. . . . Cutting Meals on Wheels is, in fact, the most compassionate thing we can do!! . . . Having food come straight to their door robs seniors of initiative. . . . They just slump around all day watching soap operas. . . .Think of all the pride they would feel if they just got out of those motorized chairs and became productive citizens again. . . . Heck,with all the deportations of illegals, there will be planty of produce to pick this spring. . . . Why rob them of their dignity?"
