    huh I would never assume there’s free housing. Maybe at least senior housing with discounted rent, and I have seen those available.

      Putting on my “neoliberal boomer” hat: that is the version of America they believe exists while simultaneously voting against a safety net, in part, because they are so brainwashed they think it actually exists (see the [CW:racism] notion of welfare queens)

      At the same time they vote against helping people while somehow also possessing an idealized notion of America that includes actually good ideas like “old people should have a guaranteed place to live”.

        hey vote against helping people while somehow also possessing an idealized notion of America that includes actually good ideas like “old people should have a guaranteed place to live”.

        only old people who are REAL AMERICANS (white, cishet, christian, born on the soil) and “worked hard” (owned a small business)
