The number of older Americans living alone is on the rise. Nearly 16 million people aged 65 and older in the US lived solo in 2022, three times as many who lived alone in that age group in the 1960s. And as Baby Boomers age, that number is expected to grow even more, raising big questions about the country’s future.
You ever notice how easy it is to take a brush and cover an entire population segment with a certain view? Ever consider how racism and stereotypes become prevalent?
I’m not a part of that generation, but if you think it was any different than today, you’re wrong. Power was weilded by rich corporations and government officials who were doing their bidding. It just wasn’t as blatant.
Besides writing a snarky post, what will you tell the future generation you did to stop the current situation? Exactly…
Pray tell, what can be done now? That ship sailed, we never had a chance…that luxury was only granted to those who came before.
All we can do is live with their choice, and make sure to take every opportunity to shame them for it.
I will NOT accept apologists like yourself, painting a grand excuse to hand-wave their complicity.

Maybe you’d feel more comfortable heading back to X-Twatter then.
Please take your cynical defeatism back to reddit and leave it there, where it belongs.
