Linda, a 64-year-old retired teacher, is struggling to make ends meet due to a low pension and debt. She's considering part-time work and wants to ensure she's not a burden to her children. Many retirees face similar struggles with low incomes, dwindling pensions, and withering Social Security, and Linda hopes to find a way to supplement her income and live comfortably in her retirement. 
 So she had a public sector job, a public sector pension, all taxpayer-funded and she wants more tax money through social security. And did you catch the part where she has a house? So she wants the rest of us to fund her house, even though most of us don't have a house. Fucking parasite. Can't wait for this ponzi scheme to collapse.
