Given many families are in economic trouble, I failed to consider the family as the caretaker. Of course if at all possible YES the family is the lead responsibility. Government support follows if there’s no family to support a disabled person and of course it depend on the degree of support which a disabled person needs.
I see from you info page that you say:George Washington is my hero. I’m looking for a group in my area that meets on a regular basis to share ideas, concerns, and developing the solution for restoring the America that once was.
I hope you find such a group and that they can explain where your thinking is a bit misguided. I'm not trying to cut you down because it's obvious you put some thought into your posts and I don't want to turn you off FR or healthy debate. I have to assume you are relatively young (probably 40 tops) and that is why you tend to think of Government as a safety net vs. having families make the necessary sacrifices to take care of their own and to make use of available charities; especially ones own Church Family to help eke out a living when times are tough. Some of the most frugal and self-dependant folks I have had the privilege to call friends were those that lived through the Great Depression and they had it so much tougher than the families that "just can't make it without government handouts" have it today. They knew what "poor" meant - today the poor have cars, stereos, big screen TVs, computers, IPADs, etc. What you might consider "being poor" today was living in the lap of luxury to those who really had it hard - and they not only survived and persevered, but they became so much stronger for the hard times - they became prepared to survive things that would have today's folks committing suicide over because it's just so damned inconvenient...
Hope to see more of you on FR.
