Elopement — when a resident wanders out of a care home — is a real risk, particularly for people with dementia. But in the vast majority of cases in the state, the facilities are never inspected and rarely sanctioned.
It sounds like you haven’t heard of insurance. It’s not free or magical. Someone has to pay for it, and afterwards that money has to be wasted doing exactly what I described. Money and manpower that could have been spent doing literally anything else, such as feeding hungry children or saving the rainforest.
You’re essentially setting aside cash NOT for your loved ones or in service to some worthy cause, but to keep your mindless body alive.
Keeping your mindless body alive helps the economy just fine. What it doesn’t help is your loved ones or hungry children or the rainforest or whatever it is that you care about — which I’m now realizing is nothing. You care about nothing but your own self.
Do explain how my wife and I not paying a small amount a month toward long-term care insurance will help save the rainforest. This should be interesting.
A small amount you can be saving for your kids, or for actual worthy causes.
People like you are why this world is ending. You’re a selfish nihilist who loves no one and cares about nothing and can’t even articulate why he’s alive. Grotesque.
It’s fine. I got my answer: you have no idea why you want to live, no value commitments of any kind, and apparently zero interest in anyone or anything but yourself.
Thanks for the answer. I hoped for something less cynical, but the truth is what it is.
Yes, I have dementia because you think my wife and I not spending about $1000 a year on long-term care insurance would make a major impact in the world.

Ah, I see. Kill myself when I’m old to help the economy.
I think I’ve heard of that somewhere before…

Look, I get that you really want me to commit suicide, but it isn’t going to happen.
Hey, you’re the mindless husk here. I don’t expect you to do anything purposeful. Morality is for losers amirite?
Insulting me is also not going to get me to commit suicide, sorry.

That wouldn’t be enough to cover care for dementia, meaning someone else will be footing that bill if you get sick. You’re deluded and narcissistic.
Again, I get that you really, really want me to kill myself, but I’m just not going to.
