[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Considering full time care is 250K/ year we'd need taxes from 10 average Americans working to support 1 person with live in care. [/quote] The good news is, this person's kids would get to inherit the house! While the 10 average Americans can't afford one.[/quote] Of course being elderly and needing care is no guarantee that you’ll own a house, or that you’ll have kids. And if you have kids, there’s a chance that one of them is jeopardizing their own chances of a comfortable retirement— and of ever owning a house — [b]because their career goals got derailed because they were providing eldercare. [/b]So, yeah, it IS good news. [/quote] Under this plan, they are not. They are just reaping the benefits from taxes of 10 average Americans.[/quote] Not even close to that, no. Any plan that gets passed will definitely be means tested - not as much as Medicaid, for sure. But there will be less aid for aides, the more money or assets you have.[/quote]
