      why do you talk in a weird wikipedia style :/

      edit: are you using a translator app/website?

      from your earlier post

      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
