America does Not really stretch for it’s old who lose income and mobility…
President Biden a 78 year old wants money to help ….
Government money to help draw in prevent money on the other end….
President Biden’s jobs plan proposes a massive investment in home care for the elderly and people with disabilities, as America’s caretaking system faces strain from the nation’s looming demographic challenges.
The White House’s American Jobs Plan calls for spending about $400 billion over eight years on “home- or community-based care” for the elderly and people with disabilities. That amounts to roughly a fifth of the overall price tag of Biden’s plan, the first of two related economic proposals expected from the White House.
The push to substantially expand in-home health-care services was one of the last major provisions added to the jobs plan, according to two people with knowledge of internal White House deliberations. The people spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal matters they were not authorized to disclose.
The inclusion of home care represents a significant commitment from the White House, which faced a large — and, at times, competing — set of policy demands from unions, advocates and congressional Democrats, among other allies. Biden postponed many other key components of his economic agenda, such as child care and family medical leave, to a second package set to be unveiled in coming weeks….
Note…
American seniors tend to vote more than other aged Americans…
This is too complicated.
America does stretch for its old relative to the rest of the US population. The elderly gets Medicare. The rest of the population does not.
Z?
Go speak to a few old times about support the get…..
They need MORE services …
They need more that Medicare…
Tell us James. What services do you need?
There are young people that need healthcare too. the USA spends far larger percentage of its healthcare dollars on old people than other countries.
Z?
Go ask around and then come back to me….
Seriously…
Find 10 old times and ask them if just having Medicare is what make’m happy with what they care or should be getting from their government…
THEN come back here and lets discuss this….
And I agree with you on young people…
President Biden and Democrats are trying to deal with THAT…
Trump and Republicans don’t give a shit….
