I am stunned the world is not reacting to this. I think the more people like me talk about it, the more people write it off.
Seems we are so broken that sliding into unimaginable calamity is the only way people will even look at the situation honestly.
We are lost.

Average UK state pension (SP) is £10,500 a year.
In 2022, 110,000 pensioners died from fuel poverty.
28% of over 55-year-olds have no other pension saved, will completely rely on SP.
23% of 18-34-year-olds expect to solely rely on SP.
Crisis looming. SP must be aligned with the living wage.

Pensioner poverty in the world’s sixth largest economy is a political choice
The hardship inflicted on retirees now will surely visit future retirees unless steps are taken to alleviate misery.
