The problem of rural singles has always been an old and serious problem. With the passage of time, the reasons for the formation of rural singles are also gradually changing, such as the gap between the rich and the poor, the imbalance between men and women, etc. In rural areas, there are a part of the elderly who enjoy the pension treatment brought by the pension insurance for urban workers after retirement, while the other part can only receive a pension of more than 100 yuan per month from the pension insurance of urban and rural residents. So, can these rural single-minded elderly people who have no other economy meet the conditions of rural five-guarantee households and enjoy the basic living security provided by the state?
Most of those rural single-minded elderly people who have pensions are retired state officials, veterans, or people who work in cities and towns and have paid into the pension insurance of urban workers. Through hard work, Xi and work, they have a stable pension and a better life. After retirement, these elderly people can rely on their pensions to live a relatively superior life, receive a fixed monthly pension, supplement family expenses, and have no worries. Even if they are lonely and live alone in the countryside, their basic life is still very smooth, and they will be envied by other rural elderly people.
However, there are also some rural singles with pensions who are not as lucky as in the above situation. They may choose to work in farming, business or develop crafts in rural areas after retirement, and there is no so-called "five insurances and one housing fund" treatment. For these elderly people, they can only receive more than 100 yuan per month for urban and rural residents' pension insurance, and their lives are relatively difficult economically. Although they have relatives and their own houses, it is very difficult to live on a pension of more than 100 yuan.
Rural five-guarantee households refer to those farmers who do not have other endowment insurance and preferential treatment from the state, in addition to labor can create living resources, the standard of living is average, and there is no other fixed economy. Most of these rural old singles are over 60 years old, and their lives are very difficult, and some of them are even seriously ill. They can only rely on the five basic living guarantees provided by the state, including the minimum living guarantee in terms of food, shelter, sickness, and death.
In rural areas, only old singles who meet the requirements of rural five-guarantee households can enjoy this treatment provided by the state. Such elderly people usually do not have a fixed financial situation**, have no relatives to help, and have very little pension or pension income. These people may face great difficulties in their future lives, not only lacking basic living expenses, but also not being able to solve funeral and other matters in the future. Therefore, they meet the conditions for becoming rural five-guarantee households, and can receive basic living expenses support provided by the state to ensure their livelihood and aftermath problems.
To sum up, whether the rural single-person elderly can become rural five-guarantee households cannot be generally divided by whether they have a pension or not. Only those rural singles who do not have a fixed economy and cannot be self-sufficient have the conditions to become rural five-guarantee households and enjoy the minimum living guarantee provided by the state. Whether it is a rural single elderly person with a pension or an elderly person who only receives a pension of more than 100 yuan, as long as they still have other fixed economic ** or sufficient savings to ensure their life, they do not meet the conditions for becoming a rural five-guarantee household.
The problem of rural singles involves a number of social, economic and cultural factors. In addressing this issue, attention and support are crucial. For those rural single-person elderly who have no other economic needs, the implementation and management of the rural five-guarantee household system should be strengthened to ensure that they can enjoy basic living security. In addition, it is also necessary to increase the care and support for the elderly in rural areas, and provide them with more care and assistance through the development of some social welfare projects and the holding of community activities.
At the same time, for the younger generation, we should also pay attention to the root causes of the problem of rural singles, such as the imbalance between men and women, and promote equality between men and women through social education and the guidance of values, so as to avoid the further deterioration of the problem of rural singles. In addition, we can also provide more opportunities and conditions for the elderly in rural areas by promoting rural economic development and improving the living environment in rural areas, so that they can live a good life in their old age after retirement.
There are still many aspects worth studying and improving on the problem of rural singles, and I hope that everyone can pay attention to this group, actively explore ways to solve them, and jointly contribute to the well-being of the elderly in rural areas.
