(1,746 posts)I'm recently disabled. No family. Can't make bills. I have been trying to sell stuff. There are few people who are vocal for folks like us who have no advocates. It'll be tough. I can't even drive so living in a car will not be an option for me. But I try not to think about it. No one has or will fight for me but me.
My advice for you is to try to find a roommate. I have been trying for almost a year.

Definitely not necessary, but those most likely to be hurt are older adults who the MFers think should at least volunteer or work for 20 hours a week.
Most Blue states will likely find some way to cover that 5% cut. At least I hope so.
