I have worked my entire life - and worked hard. Just because of this I get nothing. I don't like handouts but so many are getting them that don't need them that I'd like to get my fair share. I would appreciate lower taxes or no income taxes just as much.

I'm confused again. The income cutoff for a single tax payer is $75,000. You state you get no stimulus because you have a small pension and $156 from SS each month.
You do know $75,000 is $6250 a month or over $1400 a week.The Florida Poverty Level for 2020 was $12,760 for 1 and $26,200 for a family of 4 (approx. 1/3 of your income). I feel like I'm missing something here. I believe you..... again I just don't understand. $156 a month times 12 is less than $2000. How does one have a pension over $73,000 and get such a small SS check? I guess it's possible.
