They are increasing because there is scant little help for senior citizens in this nation... unless that citizen is wealthy. These days, more and more seniors are having to stay alone more, having to do more, and having to deal with things their body cannot handle more, because of the absolute greed that has become a fucking virtue in this nation. Without that desire to own everything and dominate everyone else, we would have a better system inn place for seniors and others who need extra help in their lives.
Seeing as this has never changed in almost thirty years, I am forced to conclude that everyone wants it this way.
( We won't go into the fact that the oligarchy wants non-rich seniors dead because they are a waste of resources that could be used to further enrich themselves while the 'poors' work themselves into an early grave. That is a story for another time, I guess.)
