We had our mom looked after when she could no longer care for herself.  We didn't expect the state to pay for her care.  We also didn't move her to Alaska like others are doing to take advantage of the state of Alaska.   As for me---my family is already making plans for when I can no longer care for myself.  One liberal family member even boasts how under her care I'll be forced to watch liberal TV all my waking hours.  However , by then liberals may have got their way and allowed people to take they're own lives at their weakest moment when medical issues arise--as they support right now.  Many kids will want to put old mom and pop to sleep like the vet does a dog so no inheritance  is wasted taking care of their elderly family member.
