Our seniors are struggling in America, there is an affordability crisis in America
This is Miss Ruby and she’s still forced to work as this age and physical state
But she’s not the only one, there is a horrifying growing trend for seniors in America
- A record 12.5 million senior households, more than 1 in 3 seniors, are “house poor,” spending over 30% of their income on housing
- 45% of Senior Households Can’t Cover Basics
- 80% Are Financially Vulnerable
- Nearly 12 million Americans aged 65+ are still working, the highest rate in decades
- Nearly 14 million seniors face food insecurity
- 58% of older renters are cost-burdened, spending over 30% of income on rent
Here’s the worst part. Low-income seniors die an average of 9 years earlier than high-income seniors
This can’t continue in America. We are going in the wrong direction
Los Angeles, 15-year-old Clara Daly from California, was travelling with her mom.
A flight attendant asked if anyone knew sign language. Clara, who had studied ASL for about a year, volunteered.
The passenger was 64-year-old Tim Cook, who is deaf and blind, flying alone. Clara knelt in the aisle and fingerspelled into his hand to communicate. She helped him order water, check the time, and speak with the crew.
For the rest of the long flight, she stayed with him, chatting until landing and bringing comfort to his journey.
Van Buren Township, MI
A resident is forcibly removed from a meeting for expressing her disdain for a proposed data center.
Board members says “We love data centers here”
This is what local accountability looks like:
In Festus, Missouri, a town of about 14,000 people, the city council quietly approved a $6 billion Ai data center to be built on 360 acres just north of Highway 67.
Residents say they were never properly heard. Meetings were held in private. Documents were released too late. A week after the approval, the town held a regular election. Voter turnout jumped 129 percent.
Every single council member who had voted yes lost in a landslide. A 70-year-old first-time candidate beat an 8-year incumbent by 40 percentage points.
Now a recall petition is circulating to remove the mayor as well. The lawsuit against the city is already filed.
Has your local government ever been held accountable like this? 🔥
James Talarico: “Young people can’t afford to buy a home, but Jeff Bezos has 12. Young people can’t afford to fill up their gas tank, but Mark Zuckerberg is launching helicopters from his mega-yacht. Young people pay more than their fair share of income taxes, but someone like Elon Musk can get away without paying a penny”
BREAKING: Marjorie Taylor Greene just dropped a massive bombshell.
The reason for the 8-week shutdown was to prevent Congress from voting to release the Epstein files.
Trump stopped workers from getting paid and our government from running so he could protect child rapists.
@YourAnonNews@LesSummers5 I think their plan is to wreck as much shit as possible before voters kick their asses out in November. They sign all these contracts and then people are stuck with it.
@YourAnonNews Kevin O'Leary is going to be responsible for ruining their community. This is what it looks like when you vote for the rich to tread all over your ass. This is going to continue under this leadership. You will have no say what happens and you will like it.
Kevin O'Leary's massive data center was approved by a county commission in Utah last night without residents' approval of the measure.
At 40,000 acres, it would be 2.5x the size of Manhattan.
The commission approved the proposal despite opposition from hundreds of locals.
@MBonvoyAssist I sent an email to the GM at the Fairfield Inn Midland Mi but Jeremy Keenoy's email isn't working. So, what's up with that? Terrible customer service
@MBonvoyAssist I am requesting a clear explanation of how this occurred and what corrective measures will be implemented to prevent this from happening to future guests. At minimum, there needs to be better internal communication and training on honoring confirmed guest benefits.
@MBonvoyAssist This situation reflects a serious breakdown in communication, accountability, and guest service. A confirmed accommodation should not be reversed overnight without notification, and guests should not be made to feel like they are at fault for relying on what staff didn't do.
@MBonvoyAssist After considerable inconvenience and being rushed out of the room, management eventually “located” the note confirming my late checkout and issued an apology. However, by that point, the damage was already done. The experience had already been unnecessarily stressful and inapprop
@MBonvoyAssist The situation became even more frustrating due to the demeanor of the front desk staff member on duty. She was visibly irritated, disengaged, and made it clear she did not want to interact with me, stating she was “only doing her job.”
@MBonvoyAssist This is not only inconsistent, but completely undermines the reliability of your staff’s word and the value of Bonvoy membership benefits.
@MBonvoyAssist When I explained that this had already been approved, I was dismissed and told late checkout is “at your discretion,” and that availability had changed overnight.
@MBonvoyAssist When I went to the front desk, I was told there was no record of the arrangement and was then directed to management.
I was informed the hotel was fully booked and that I needed to vacate by 11:00 AM
