摘要

这个结尾描述了一名护工，她的房子被取消抵押品赎回权，她退休后住在加纳。对于护工来说，这一损失象征着她的工作没有结果，也象征着美国法律制度的不公平。抵押贷款可能适合有稳定工作的工人，但家庭保健工作者的月收入波动很大，因为他们的工作时间表不稳定。

Interlude

This coda describes a care worker undergoing a foreclosure on her house and retiring to live in Ghana. To the care worker, this loss is symbolic of her work not bearing fruit, and of the unfairness of the American legal system. Mortgages may be appropriate for workers in a stable job, but home health workers’ monthly income fluctuates because of the precarity of their work schedules.
