The richies paid far less in percentage. Don't point your finger at us, dude.
There is a war against the common people and your words quoted above are nothing more than throwing one of their 'bombs'. You really should just stop doing that.
4. America is not broke..... But if it want's to keeping starting wars, and
transferring it's treasure to the richest in this country we will be, but let's not use the baby bombers as a bargaining chip to give the rich anymore... End the wars, and we will be just fine....O and if we want to help the baby boomers in retirement for God sake stop importing nurses from another country... Our nurses in America need these jobs...
7. When I was working as a temp in the social services adult services
department back in the 90s we were already talking about the need for elder care for the boomers. One thing that my state did was start screening people when they go into the nursing home. This was done so that nursing homes would no longer be retirement homes but intensive care homes. Home health and other community programs were then put into place to help seniors stay in their own or a relatives home. Now they are setting up an adult foster home system and group homes for seniors.
It was determined that if this kind of programing was not put into place the country would have had to build 200 nursing homes a week to accommodate the boomers.
In our state the system works well (I'm in it now instead of being the social worker) but it is my opinion that any government program is only as good as the elected officials that control it. This is why there is such a difference in states when it comes to schools, nursing homes and other government agencies.
