@cnn: Australian content creator Samuel Weidenhofer traveled to Detroit to meet Ed Bambas, an 88-year-old veteran working at a Meijer grocery store. Weidenhofer then started a GoFundMe to help try to retire Ed, which has raised over $1.5 million.

Don’t forget- Ed worked for GM for years and had a pension and then GM went bankrupt and pulled his pension (and countless others im sure) and they were bailed out by the government…….

It took an Australian influencer to help an retired American worker whose pension was cancelled by a billionaire

Absolutely nothing "great" about a country that forces people in their 70-80's to have to work.

The US doesn’t take care of their own senior citizens because they will call it socialism.

This would never happen in poorer countries. An 88 yr old man would never be working at this age. Isn’t that ironic?
