Here is what to say that,I had some weird thoughts about some very interesting facts regarding the electricity being off while the rice was on the fire, it was around 5:22 at that time. Then I thought about that random old man who has been counting the change in his hand by the roadside shop to try and buy a loaf of bread and it made me so sad to know that someone out there who worked so hard for 40 years in an office or factory is still not be able to afford to buy bread for his family or himself.

It could be his own mishandling of the money he got but not all of them did this to themselves.
There is no other name for a country than calling it a failure if it's not able to afford food for the helpless elderly. While some are at the top of GDP or being talked about regarding currency exchanges, the numbers really don't do anything when it comes to your country failing you.
If people can't afford everyday vegetables, the pension system must be in a serious disarray. Someone who has paid into the tax fund since the 80s shouldn't have to decide between taking care of their health, seeing a doctor and buying food. Even our younger generation is not doing so well, and those of our older generations don't have the luxury of a game plan, they can't just decide to create another side hustle as they did before, it's basically too late for them.
It is wrong that someone would experience these struggles after living an entire life paying into pension funds. Would it hurt for our ministers to live on the average pension for two weeks? Yes it would so why do they drive the expensive land cruiser and watch the elderly go through this much pain.
