That poor lady..Her house is in Westchester County where property taxes are among the highest in NY State and she pays $12,000 a year in taxes..She has a reverse mortgage too—probably to help pay the taxes..If she works she gets $7 an hour...At that rate and with that annual tax bill, she would hardly be able to really retire...NY State almost sounds eager to get (experiences) seniors out to the schools, libraries, social centers, etc to get them to work, saying it’s for their own good...actually, it’s slave labor-with a wage....

Sounds like indentured servitude to me.
