Seniors lament Social Security freeze, but take it in stride after a lifetime of scrimping

PEMBROKE PINES, Fla. — If her check were bigger, 76-year-old Agnes Conti might be able to spring for a better cut of meat for her pot roast. She could afford to send her nine grandchildren more than $20 for their birthdays and Christmas. She’d be able to buy some nice new clothes, like she sees on QVC, not what she settles for at Walmart.
