In defense of our overlords - they've tried more subtle ways to get rid of us, but we refuse to die.

So now they must actually go to great efforts to dispose of us.

Meals on wheels,just keeps old people alive.

And with well educated East Indians coming here to do our hi paying tech jobs, we need only enough education to be janitors.

Housing for thr elderly ?

Fuck them. Us old folks just are in the way.

It's a shame that we refuse to stand up and put the lot of these fat cats on a prison barge.

Maybe when we're homeless and starving we'll wake up.

Don't bet on that,though.

Why is anyone surprised? What have been the mantras for decades in our country? “That’s YOUR problem” “I don’t owe anyone anything” “I must love myself before I can love (or give damn) about anyone else” “How did that make you feel?”

So what if children in poverty and the elderly have a problem with hunger, it’s not YOUR problem (or concern), you don’t owe them anything since it doesn’t affect you, and you’re busy loving yourself and are really tired of people trying to make you feel guilty.

Idiot TV sitcoms, reality TV, self-appointed gurus doling out advice to always put yourself first and screw everyone else if they don’t like it — here’s where we are.
