You lot are in big trouble.

 Imagine this, not having the money to pay, whatever your illness is.

Don't have to imagine, it's the reality for many.

People spend their entire adult life building their definition of the American dream and when they become old & frail and need help with their care they won't get it if they have assets. How about that shit, one must live in poverty in order to get care they need OR relinquish their assets.

I know someone who just died who wasn't able to get hospice at home because he owned too much land. Medicare wouldn't pay for his hospice care so he could die at home. Every friggin' time I think about that I get so fucking pissed off. Whatta racquet.
