Yep so it sounds like computers and society may be to blame for this? As we’ve moved towards a more individualistic society over the last 100 years we’ve gained a lot of things but being able to take care of our elders appears to have been lost in the fray :\
This will hurt a lot coming up with the low fertility rate and significant amount of older people
and they would certainly not have been left in the streets if they stopped being able to.
as worked out above in my other post they are not living on the street, they’re living an extremely nice first world life that they need to pay for, they could easily cut their expenses down by 1/3rd and still have a better life than most of the planet and in history without the need for any of their children or others having to live with them
In an industrial capitalistic society though, automation just means that the owner class can extract more value without bettering the material conditions of the workforce.
this sounds like you read a wikipedia article on communism and are just pasting it here
they live, clearly, materially better conditions not just in nearly every aspect of the workplace, from safety to tools, to a clearly materially better life in a nice happy retirement village with a nice new car and all the first world modern medicine they need, not the least after they have recently had multiple modern surgeries which have kept them alive to begin with
they blame their situation on a lack of access to personal finance advice:
They grew up against the economic backdrop of the Great Depression and World War II, and learned to be financially cautious after seeing what their parents endured. However, they didn’t have access to the same kind of personal finance advice and tools that are prevalent today.
and i’m pretty sure they’re not planning on moving to cuba anytime soon
