My mother was a retired high school teacher with a university degree. At 95 her pension was paying her more money than I managed to make in five years of working.
And all of it went to Chartwell.
So why not have a system of eldercare whereby people who can no longer live independently give up their pensions to the government and the government provides them with the appropriate and graduated level of care and accommodation they require. Co-op-style. Elders spreading their wealth to look after each other and provide meaningful employment for geriatric support workers.
