This is awful for Mike and other disabled people in the USA.Could it happen here in the UK with the economic recission? Care packages are being cut by some Council's hrere and disabled people and older people being forced in care homes on the cheap or worse being dumped in prisons, which the full criminal justice system has become the dumping ... Read moregrounds for community care... The full system here in the UK and USA and other western economies are on 'meltdown' and that is why they wanted the assistive suicide bill to go through and they are also hoping that 'swine-flu' will kill off a few million older people and disabled people in ill health who can't afford private health care.
What are the solutions? Rise in taxes to pay for health and social care?
Charities having their tax subsidise cut and this money going to pay for health and social care? 'Charities' are not 'Charities' anymore, so they should be treated equally like any other 'businesses' and pay their bloody taxes.
