This is very interesting and hard to believe. It is not a usual case and interesting that nursing homes would sue those with no money, like the record companies over music downloading.
More generally the taxpayers (medicare and Medicaid)pick up the expensive nursing home tabs and with many in their 50s and 60s paralyzed after bad strokes to be there for life (due to type 2 diabetes.) This is a very expensive period of life and we will only have more americans living it.
There is an irony that the USA borrows money or prints it to hire (medicare and Medicaid) those from other countries to do these dirty and unpleasant jobs. so what good do all those dollars do the Chinese when their aging population increases?
