Huh? I dealt with this 5 years ago during non-covid times. They want inmates who require no work or risk, and pay $7k-$10k per month. Fall once and you're out of there.

lots worse stuff going on,

Come to think on it, it's always been like this! There was no glorious time when seniors didn't need to get extra money! I My own grandma got the nickname "grandma ice cream" because she worked at an ice cream store part time as a retired widow in the supposedly heavenly late 1950's. And in the early 60's the huge family argument over all the "kids" chipping in for a new TV set for the other grandparents because they couldn't afford to replace their broken one. And an 80-something aunt working the Christmas rush every year in the 90's on a packing line so she could have extra cash for gifts... etc.

Where's Jamelle Bouie been? While 30 hrs. per week is a bit much, I don't find this as dystopian as working as a Walmart greeter on his feet all the time, or living in one-room senior "assisted living". or god forbid, a nursing home where they take everything you own. It's not like everyone didn't warn all along that "Social Security is not enough". I don't think many realize that they take a Medicare premium every month out of that check as well, until it happens. And that if you don't sign up for a lousy limited network Advantage Care plan, the Medicare supplemental to cover the 20% not covered costs a pretty penny per month and the Drug Plan is usually a lot of out-of-pocket, too.
