Most of nursing home staff consists of nursing assistants, which requires a 6-8 week training course. And if the number of patients each aide has to care for would be reduced, more people might become aides.

“... able to print money due to our reserve currency status”

What does “reserve currency status” mean?

I presume you mean by “the jig’s up” that we print money by borrowing it and eventually we’ll have to pay it all back with interest.

You may.

I don’t.

And I say that as some who had more than one family member in residential care at the same time at one point, two of whom had dementia.

This is NOT about better care.

If you think it is then show me a state run facility with superior care compared to a non-profit or a private facility.

Deep State doesn’t like competition.

If it can drive the non-profits and private facilities out of biz, guess who has a corner on the market.

Meanwhile, while we’re on the subject of residential care facilities...

Still wondering why, when the Trump admin relaxed regs allowing residential care facilities to refuse to take back sick CoupFlu residents from hospitals, Cuomo, Whitmer et al ordered them sent back anyway...

Inquiring minds want to know.

What does “reserve currency status” mean?

There is a demand for the U.S. dollar throughout the world. For example, they want the U.S. dollar in countries like Argentina and El Salvador.

Usually, when a country is "printing" money like the U.S., they will see serious inflation (like Venezuela).

But we are able to get away with it because of the worldwide demand for the U.S. dollar.
