I work for a man who rails against Libruls, Obama, Muslims, government and taxes. Right now his wife is in hospice through her Medicare. Hospice provides all her meds, supplies like chux pads, diapers, liquid nutrition and CNA and RN visits several times weekly. He's irritated that hospice doesn't provide an item that he has to buy himself. It really gets under his skin that he has to spend 10 bucks a week on this item and just loves all the "freebies" he's now getting from hospice.
It hasn't crossed his mind that the government is providing this service to him and his wife; the same government help he begrudges poor people, food stamp recipients, etc.. He is a classic Fox News conservative. He is easily riled up by the beef of the day on Fox and is constantly spouting falsehoods he's heard on right-wing radio. I try to ignore him as best I can, but his willingness to milk the system for his family's benefit while he bitches about society's leeches makes me furious. It's the classic screw-you-I-got-mine attitude of the wingers.
