In some cases, the state takes care of you - like for acute care following major surgery in a nursing home.
Few people can afford it and we’re the only country in the world forcing older people to impoverish themselves before their catastrophic health care costs are covered.
Obamacare didn’t fix it even though we have a rapidly aging population and Americans are only getting older.
The IRS check box doesn’t address the issue. This is what private health insurance seldom covers. I thank God for Medicaid.
We had to essentially bankrupt our aging mother before she could qualify for federal health insurance. This is what the government stooges want - for you to be broke so they can “take care” of you.
President Trump, please get all the IRS poobahs in one room who decided to ignore your executive order and FIRE EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM. Do it on national television. Disgrace these scum suckers with every ounce of your venom for their disobedience.
It would cinch your re-election.
