My grandparents are this way. My dad might be, but thankfully Mom is not, and she helped me get on Medicaid and we’re working on getting disability benefits. I just remember my grandparents saying one time something about how they’re on Medicare, but thank goodness none of us were on Medicaid.
Older generations were brought up with the idea that it’s shameful to receive help, but we need to do away with that idea, especially as wealth gets more and more concentrated in the hands of a few and there’s less for the rest of us.
