[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They would never kill them. Privatize, yes. Too many Republican donors make their fortunes cheating these programs and their beneficiaries. Think of the drug companies and nursing home investors and all the crazy gimmicks and frauds advertised on old people tv. What would happen to the reverse mortgage huckster industry? [/quote] Eh, ending these programs would force everyone who isn't a millionaire to work until they die, just like in the "good old days" or drop dead from lack of medical care. Also just like in the "good old days." My great grandmother killed herself at age 78, rather than to continue to be a burden to her family. [/quote] That is heartbreaking. I will never forget this movie - "Ballad of Naryama" - about one Japanese village's approach to the burden of the elderly. It was Roger Ebert's last entry on his great film's list before his death.[/quote]
