I recently went on EBT (food stamps) and all my food is free. I am eating so much healthier and feel so much better! Unfortunately my rent went up outrageously and my Social Security payment doesn't even cover my half of it. My days are numbered. If i don't get government housing by September I will be homeless. I won't last a week on the street.

@hunkalove And there is no reason it has to be that way in a country like America..A tragedy for the people. A failure of governance..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman I got my notice yesterday about my Social Security increase for next year. $19. My rent went up $225.

@hunkalove here landlords can only increase rent 3.5% per yr...maybe look for another place.

@Wiseacre Even in New York City, the greed capital of the world, landlords can only rause rent 5%. No rules like that in Denver.

It seems that you can still afford internet.
