Another case of government over reach at least for our conservative Republican friends. During 2013 the Scooter Store was forced to close because of Uncle Sam and thousands of seniors were denied access to scooters. The closing of the Scooter Store mean the loss of 2,000 jobs. What next for Obama and the Dems how far will they go?

The store tried to pull that scam on my MIL. She hated the scooter and was afraid to use it. My hubby called and called them to take it back but they just left it in the hallway at the nursing home. He finally told them if they could not figure out how to take it back he would report them to the AG of our state. They took it back soon enough.

BUT it seems many tax payers like to have their hard earned money flushed down the drain and the stores who are in on the scam to line their pockets. After all the more they give out the more money the government sends them. Same as Obama phones. Some people have 10 phones or more. Waste is all it is.

Put 'borregokid' + 'mobility scooters' in the C-D search engine and watch the servers crash
