Heres an interesting thought-experiment: If you are young or on the younger side of middle age, you can be responsible, in cash (without relying on any government assistance whatsoever), when your parents become ill.... So let their children who might bawk at the Affordable Care Act pay for their mom and dads healthcare if there is no ACA. Also, let that young person who doesnt currently have insurance, but can afford it, sign a legal document that they will not use any government funds if they become ill or have a serious accident. Lets go a step further and challenge those Tea Partiers and Republicans and some Democrats who want to cut back on Social Security and Medicare.... You and those who agree with you must first sign a similar legal document that declares that you will support your parents and supplement their meager Social Security incomes as the government cuts back the checks that they earned as they worked toward retirement.... And when these young or under-50 haters of the federal government complain that they are bankrupt from paying for medical care and their parents stay in the nursing home, just tell them to -- in the colloquial -- shove it....
