Kids, You Won't Have to Worry About Mom and Me ...unless

. . . . "They" (insert suitable descriptive political party,  faction or candidate name) repeal The Affordable Care Act and -

*We are old, sick and unable to take care of ourselves (eating, toileting, grooming, dressing, bathing and transferring) and the State decides to send us (or one of us) to a miserable nursing home  bed in another county instead of providing us (or one of us)  with inexpensive home and community based attendant services and support to rehabilitate us and get us (or one of us) going again.

* The State says that I have no right to be independent.

* One of us gets very sick and "They" have done away with our protection, as recipients of home and community services, of protection against spousal impoverishment.

*"They decide that, in spite of the Olmstead Supreme Court Caser ruling, neither Mom nor I have a right to choose long term services in the community, rather than in an institutional setting.

*"They" wipe out the "Elder Justice Act" which protects Mom and me against physical or psychological harm,elder abuse, neglect and exploitation, improves Long Term Care facilities and gives you the information to know - as our kids - whether those taking care of us are trained, doing their jobs competently and honestly, or are crooks stealing our property and your meager inheritances.

So don't worry - unless . . . .
