Filial Responsibility laws are still on the books in many states, including CA

These have lain dormant for decades since SS and Medicare/caid began.

However, once these New Deal/Great Society safety nets are gutted, the banksters will snatch seniors' homes and siphon savings accounts into their pockets. Because Filial Responsibility laws mandate that children are responsible for taking care of/and paying for all of their elders' needs.

So, guess who gets stuck with the bills: THE KIDS. Even if they live in another state!

I've told my millennial daughter to tell ALL her friends how ending SS/MC will impoverish her generation. The days of Granny moving in—who can't afford that cataract operation, or meds for that trick knee of hers—will be a reality.

I only found out about this a couple of years ago.

For more info Google 2012 Pennsylvania man liable for $93,000—payable immediately— for nursing home costs incurred by his mother, in New Jersey.
