26. If you've been involved in politics.....
examine the balance. I was talking to someone who swore to be one of the "good guys" about an insurance scam. People get a tax credit for buying long term care insurance.
As usual, the insurance co.s find ways to weasel out, and not pay or pay less. Not to mention the fact that it only helps people who can afford to buy it.
I objected to cozying up to insurance, etc. The supposed "good guy" said but, now is not the time to make a philosophical objection the people who need long term care are costing the state too much money.
When are we going to decide that it is legitimate to start making "philosophical objections" when there is nothing so important to do as end a war?
