Did you know the max SSI payment for 2023 is $914/month ($3,612 below the current poverty line?) SSI is a program that’s supposed to help disabled ppl & seniors (who pass the rigorous rqmnts) survive. Most are denied on the 1st try, while appeals can take years. Not everyone survives the wait.

It is. Can't even get a studio apartment for that. She has no credit, doesn't drive, pays 100s in prescriptions a month.

That’s sadly not uncommon. The rules make it nearly impossible to survive alone, but also penalize for living w others. It’s ridiculous & shameful, esp given the extreme wealth held by those at the top. Our country has plenty of resources, but they’re greedily hoarded away from ppl who need it most.
