It’s harder each year for retirees who are living off their social security to pay for housing and food. Either increase social security or provide discounted food and housing. This includes lower mortgage rates for seniors.

Increase Social Security for American Senior Citizens. For instance, the current average benefit for a woman of my age is just $1,600. In the face of rampant inflation, the 2025 “cost of living” increase is a pitiful 2.5%. A more substantial increase is needed now. I do not endorse ancillary programs or vouchers for seniors, which will increase government administration costs, provide opportunities for misuse, and may not be useful for all seniors.
