Responsible Americans blow their brains out at 75. How dare she.
I figure that if I get to my 80’s or thereabouts, it will be time to end my life. I don’t have the wealth, friendship, or health to enjoy my life at the age of deterioration. Hopefully, society will accept my choice, and offer a painless way to leave this coil.
That said, I would prefer this lady and all other people to have their twilight years to be enjoyable.
Why are we so worried about this woman when nobody seems to be worried about the 93 year old billionaire shareholder who won’t be able to manipulate global geopolitical events in their final few years? They should be allowed to extract every ounce of value from our society that they bought fair and square . If you don’t like the way things are then go buy your own society. Sheesh.
I feel weird submitting this knowing that even extream sarcasm isn’t as obvious as it should be here in 2025
This happens BECAUSE it’s the wealthiest country on earth.
We live in a time of larger wealth disparity than the times of peasants and kings.
The royals were also really wealthy as they said in ignorance “let them eat cake”.
Except that statement wasn’t said by royalty, it’s a misattributed mistranslation of a snippet from Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s Confessions.
It was written 9 years before Marie Antoinette became queen and while she was still a child and had not yet traveled to France.
This is a classic case of the victors writing history. This quote has been used countless times to try to illustrate that the royalty was out of touch (which I’m neither arguing for nor against here,) however there’s no evidence it was ever spoken by the Queen - indeed it wasn’t attributed to her at all for many years after her death.Marie Antoinette abducted children from peasant families.
Same thing now.
Some individuals are the wealthiest on earth.
The US shithole has the biggest (unpayable) debt and is the poorest country on earth.
I’d like to say im surprised but im not the yanks really have lost the bloody plot
If I were in that position I would do the same. Either they can’t evict me or I get sent to prison and I would be kept warm and fed, rather than the streets where I would probably starve or freeze to death.
They usually just release homeless people charged with petty crimes after the first hearing (24-48 hours) without bail. They can’t pay fines, for commissary, phone calls, and all that; or work, so they’re not profitable.
What makes anyone believe she’s capable of surviving eviction? Oh right, they don’t care if she dies.
Expect a lot more of this with the BBB bill cutting 800billion from medicade. Most seniors 62% in these homes are paid for by Medicaid after all of their assets have been liquidated. These places cost 10k a month or more.
Being Heartless is the de-facto standard in capitalism.
Checked my mother’s facebook and sure enough she’s concerned about it. If there’s one thing the elderly care about it’s their social security checks. She still doesn’t understand who is responsible though.
Kinda sounds like a win-win for her when you think about it. The state isn’t gonna stick her in high security prison, more like minimum security, so it’s basically just a retirement home but this time she doesn’t have to pay rent, and under the 8th amendment, prisons in the US are required to provide medical care to inmates (it’s not always the best care, but they do get it), which isn’t actually the case with poorly funded or greedy retirement homes.
There comes a point when you’re old enough that going to prison is actually a better alternative to retirement homes, because a retirement home will actually take your assets so you have no wealth to pass down to your kids, but a prison doesn’t do that. if you go into prison as an elderly person, your house is still yours, your bank accounts are still yours, you just can’t access them while you’re in prison.
if prisons weren’t so inhumane and degrading
Imagine a country where going to jail is a good thing
medieval monastery
Norway?
Minimum/Open prisons probably aren’t so bad, or at least are about the same as retirement homes. Abusive prison guards hitting you? You get that from ‘care’ workers every day anyway, except this time you don’t have to pay for it.

You can’t be 'the richest country in the world" if 40% of your citizens are in poverty. The US “gov” is corrupt and greedy. This place truly is a shithole…
Sire you can , it’s called inequality.
I wish GDP got the same amount of pushback from people that BMI does whenever anyone mentions it
That claim is ot course being made by the richest people in the country.
America is insane.
Not insane, America is addicted to narcissism.
Why not gas her? It worked for the nazis.
And waste good gas? Just throw her alive into the mass grave, and stack bodies on top like
wethey did in Bosnia.Worked for Churchill, nobody knew.
The nazis got some backlash and we’ll never hear the end of it.
Unfortunately as an excuse to to much more horrible war crimes.
This is why it’s better to die and become a ghost and haunt a place.
Who needs to be 93? Especially in THIS timeline.
