Boomer blaming is stupid

They didn’t cause the cost of living crisis, the US government and capitalists did

They just happened to have much better financial conditions because the US needed to compete against the USSR during the Cold War

If anything, they probably have a pretty ok reason for thinking that there is at least some kind of safety net, because in 1975 when they last had to use it there was one.

This kind of dunking on people finding themselves in positions I would like no human being to find themselves in strikes me as kind of gross. If no one deserves it, they don’t deserve it.

not sure it’s right to assume all of them voted against social services. and it’s not like public housing has ever been on the ballot anyway. I know OC is a hotspot for rich chud assholes but those folks generally aren’t the ones becoming homeless, are they?

You have to jump through some hoops in my state to get one. I looked into it in rehab. Also you can’t get foodstamps if you still live at home, even if your parents can’t provide money.

absolutely cursed as expected. the latter is also how tuition assistance is last I checked. parents can’t or won’t help pay? too bad, their income still counts against you by default until age 26

On food stamp applications, if you say that you live with other people but that you don’t share resources, then they don’t include the other people’s income. I wouldn’t be surprised if that has changed somehow though? Are you a minor?
