Sonja [21]

As a response to Kipling's poem “The White Man’s Burden: The United States and The Philippine Islands;” African-American clergyman and editor H. T. Johnson wrote and published in April 1899 “The Black Man’s Burden” arguing that mistreatment of brown people in the Philippines was a reflection of the mistreatment of black Americans at home, as stronger countries abuse their power to conquer weaker/less developed countries as it is clear in that part of the poem below.

why should the government introduce more social welfare schemes for the support and care of the senior citizens​
Ad libitum [116K]

before social security and medicare

many old people were left in terrible circumstances because they were too old to work

and in the private sector many companies have cheated senior employees out of receving a pension and a healthcare plan

for example if it took 20 years for an employee to get retirement benefits , in the private sector, they would fire the employees in the 19th year

so many old people before social security and medicare had to eat dog and cat food to survive

many faced living with diseases without getting insurance and treatment

some faced homelessness

economy benefits too in that social welfare schemes help the bottom line and profit margins of hospitals, grocery stores and apartment building owners. since social security income once started comes every month...these sectors of the economy receive some of that money too every month in form of rent, grocery, Co pay, etc

franklin roosevelt was the president who really started the social welfare programs for seniors over coming the protests of republicans and probably some in his party
