“A woman I know who owns 23 rental units says more of her renters are paying in cash. Banks charge fees if you don’t keep enough money in the account so they’ve closed their accounts and gone all cash.”
Here in NJ there is more to it; as the state turns into a Third World toilet we are regressing to the primitive societies and economies from which our new Third World residents come. Just as in southern CA, these imported “replacement Americans” have no intention of contributing anything (while they consume on the taxpayers’ teat), and most importantly for the open-borders advocates: these people have no intention of contributing to Social Security.
I work with an unassimilated American who was bemoaning the fact that her elderly mother had to go back to work because her Social Security wasn’t sufficient. When I asked what her mother had done for a living throughout her working years, she replied that she had cared for children for cash; the irony was lost on her (after I described how Social Security payments were calculated) when she said her mother wouldhave to return to caring for children...for cash.
” the fact that her elderly mother had to go back to work because her Social Security wasn’t sufficient.”

I’m elderly and most of my friends are elderly yet NOT ONE of us was stupid enough to think we could live on SS.
We did not work for cash so our payments would be larger than this woman’s would be, but there is no way we could live on it.
Are the words “planning ahead” too difficult for these people?
