Florida is now one of the most financially stressed states in the country, second only to another Southern state, according to a new report by WalletHub, which defines financial distress as having credit in forbearance or deferring payments due to financial difficulty.
“When you combine data about people delaying payments with other metrics like bankruptcy filings and credit score changes, it paints a good picture of the overall economic trends of a state,” WalletHub analyst Chip Lupo said about the findings.
Oklahoman - I tried applying for unemployment earlier this year, and couldn’t figure it out.
When I was in college I wanted to apply for food stamps, you specifically can not get food stamps if you are taking college classes.
I desperately need legal assistance, I called the legal aid service and they told me they only help seniors with evictions.
I need to see a doctor and a therapist, I can’t. I have no idea what the services would even vex
I used to volunteer at the food banks. I know that process is giving up an entire morning or afternoon, having to bring a shit ton of documentation, and getting expired food. So I’m going to live on cans of ravioli and hot dogs.
I am so god damn sick of people telling me that help exists. There is no help.
if you lived in cali you wouldve ldefinitely gotten the HELP, medicaid based on your income, its probably low anyways. i wonder how republicans in those states are even getting “welfare” enough to be satiated, i wonder if they only cater to red districts more.
Basically southern states expect your family to take care of you. Doesn’t matter how disabled you are, doesn’t matter if you are just going through a temporary tight pinch that will spiral out of control unless you just get a tiny bit of help to stay on your feet, you are the responsibility of your family and if they don’t want you you might as well drink yourself to death.
