I have a distant relative who makes millions every year for a crony bank we're all familiar with. The family is liberal and hard-core supporters of Obamacare.
They have employed a housekeeper since their children were kids. The housekeeper is experiencing some kind of illness requiring hospitalization.
The family was lamenting to my wife how poor the woman's coverage was.
Have they offered her any help? Of course not. They want someone else to help her. And by force, if necessary.
You should have your wife tell them straight up that they should help with the house keeper’s medical bills!
