There has been a new report on how to deal with Aged Care
How can anyone argue about people who can pay should pay. It is a bit like Super. Parents want to keep all of it and leave it to their children only in this case they want the government to pay for it all.
I would have thought in a civilised society people live by their own means and the government only helps people who need helping.
There are two things I worry about as I get older. Getting some form of dementia and having to live in an aged care 'home'. The royal commision has only exacerbated this worry.
We are living in a society that is aging. We need to cope with this and this report is a decent first attempt at that.
