I literally said the system is predatory, it's just weird to victim-blame random broke seniors for it, but okay.
You also claimed its worth continuing to exist so some seniors don't starve and are instead exploited.
I firmly, strongly disagree. It just prolongs that exploitation in perpetuity.
No, that's what the strawman in your head said.
Oh ok, so you agree those seniors shouldn't have eaten because reverse mortgage scams shouldn't exist and your initial reply had no point, got it. How Seinfeldian.
No, you idiot, I'm saying it's fucked up of you to blame the elderly for having to take loans against their houses for food and medical care.
