Many elderly couples are getting caught in a quandary when one becomes too ill to stay at home and the other must spend down their assets so the sick spouse can go on Medicaid. The healthy spouse must essentially be left destitute, although they do get to keep their house (how magnanimous of the government) and $2,000 in their savings account. If they have a car, it must be worth no more than a given amount. No mind they may own a reliable vehicle, in many cases, it has to be relinquished and an unreliable beater must take its place.

Many elderly men and women refuse to remarry, because it is simply dangerous to do so.

With the death tax and relying on the death of others for one’s own gain, the state is defacto having a motive to make war on us. This is completely anticonstitutional in the very sense of hiring a state to attack us, in its true Soviet socialist depravity and hypocrisy. A system dependent on subserviance or some “program” is denpendent upon the death of the individual in its multifacetedness, and that is socialism all the same indeed.

Rejecting God and scoffing at belief in cynicism is indeed socialism synonymous.

But Nazies practiced the same liberal choosey doctrines: Japanese were white but Chinese deemed yellow and inferiors, and so do liberals ascribe homosexuality or sharia as being devoid of hate criminality in and of itself. They clearly have their sexual and racial preferences, the only difference is they have not come out the closet like Hitler did, so to speak.

and so we have a welfare system that discourages marriage for the young and old alike.
