Senator Bernie Sanders Report Warns Nearly Half of Older Americans 'Have No Retirement Savings' - Lemmy.World

Regular Americans are struggling to survive in a nightmare dystopia. News and weather at 11.

Not surprising that a lot of boomers got left behind. The American system is designed to grind everyone to zero with overwhelming debt to keep everyone working at nonliving wages.

Making sure income can’t match debts is a form of wage slavery. Company towns with mines back in the day. This current “economy” is that bullshit on steroids.

Marketing and the media are also to blame. We’re constantly bombarded by advertising and people telling us that what we have isn’t enough. We’re so status conscious and aware if how much is out there that they have us chasing dreams straight into massive debt.
Those its “my money and I need it now!” commercials…devious now that a lot of folks dont have anything saved.
