Willie was right when he said, "First, let us kill all the lawyers"!
Cut politicians perks instead!
This makes no sense whatsoever.
Everybody knows it saves money to be at home vs a nursing home. Not only that, but people who are at home aren't exposed to unnecessary germs and subsequent illnesses.
This make no sense.
Perhaps the nursing home lobby is responsible for this cut????
Right, Anonymous, cut the politician's perks and there's plenty of money to go around to those who really need it.
The state has money for nursing homes, but not home care. Hmmm.
