To them, workers are nothing but slaves for the corporate class, which has only lead to around a half of senior citizens experiencing severe poverty, not being able to afford basic needs if they're living alone. Ana Kasparian discusses on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 68 pm ET.

"Around half of U.S. seniors living alone can't afford their basic necessities, statistics published Monday revealed, underscoring calls for legislation to expand Social Security and lower prescription drug prices.
Fifty-four percent of older U.S. women who live on their own and 45% of older men in the same situation are either impoverished by federal standards or cannot cover their necessary expenses, according to the Elder Index, a project of the Gerontology Institute at the University of Massachusetts Boston. For older couples, the figure is 24%.
"The Elder Index confirms what we already knew: The cost of living is just too high for older Americans, and their earned benefits aren't keeping pace with these costs," the Alliance for Retired Americans tweeted in response to the report."
