Generally, you need to be facing persecution from your state, which personal suffering within a state does not quite qualify. I'm not aware of any country that accepts refugees on the basis that the country being fled does not provide housing or healthcare. Not saying we ought not, but that is the truth of asylum systems.

Guess I'll die, then.

Its taken me over a solid year of doing my own PT everyday to be able to kind of walk for more than 30 minutes without screaming pain.

I dunno, for Canada, I've got two bachelors degreea that might help count toward the points system thing as a highly qualified worker, but last time I looked at the scoresheet, wasn't enough... and I can still only type in short bursts before my right hand and wrist are in agony, so I can't do any serious computer work, and now I have a 2+ year gap in my job history.

Again, if SSDI gets cut off for me, I will just die.

SNAP is already getting curtailed... and if you don't have an address, because you have no home, because you have no income, you can't apply for SNAP.

So I'll starve, as all the homeless shelters are already at max capacity, and most don't allow you to stay inside all day, who cares if it's a blizzard or a heat wave.

America is quickly becoming a 3rd world nation. Person to person I am sorry for your circumstance and hope some semblance of social services still exist there in the coming months and years.

I know that you mean a "shithole" country, but I think 2nd world country is more accurate here

Pretty sure America was never really a first world country, it just seemed that way
