Spouse and son laid off from #ironrange mining. One salary one union. Everyone thinks miners are so rich- not so when supporting a family- especially a one income family due to disability. Nobody was proactive to get more businesses up here when we all know iron ore is a finite resource 🙄 #Minnesota
Love being a Minnesotan! Please extend jobs further north- the ore is running out and we’ll all be ghost towns- homeless too at this rate. Thanks for all you do!
In 2006 seniors on medicare supps being billed for erroneous stuff either the insurance company denied or provider billed wrong. If they were capable of had an advocate they’d call and I’d help correct- think of how many too elderly to see the errors or have no one to help. Ridiculous.
And we thought mental health issues skyrocketed during covid. The world ain’t seen nothing yet. 1st panic attack in years and not enough xanax. #mentalhealth#insanity
How many ppl die per yr on ss w/no spouse/beneficiary?ppl that die soon after retirement? Meaning, doesn’t money accrue in ss that way and shouldn’t be lacking for funds?#socialsecurity
Priced out of having cable tv channels by #mediacom told me they are moving to streaming only. With 200 channels I could surf &see all news channels. Curious if streaming was planned to put us into our own echo chambers not seeing other views.Streaming not convenient.Thoughts? #media#streaming
Rural res. here pop.3,500 w/a drug/hardware store, 3 places to eat,5 bars, a couple churches and 1 spendy grocery store.Nearest store with clothing is Walmart or Target 15 miles in opposite directions.Nearest city w/a mall/other options over an hour away.But on the verge of purging them.
I’m just an average person witnessing this and had my 1st panic attack in the last week. I don’t have enough xanax for this. Mental health issues on the rise for anyone with a working brain. But yes, worse for those directly impacted.
We need some out of the box thinkers. Like an off the wall doable approach. I don’t want us to be like them- but we normal channels will continue to fail and we be like meh- hell no.
Someone have the actual # or estimate of ss money that ceases due to the death of the recipient that has no beneficiary? Or how many dead or 150 yr olds are still collecting ss? How bout the # of ill people passing away while on ss disability? Do any of these deaths offset anything?
