An estate lawyer actually pitched an option like that to someone in my immediate family as a way to get the state to cover expenses of a disabled relative who's in long term care. The good republican he was, he said "Why give up the estate when you can keep the money and get the state to cover em's care." Fucking gross pitch.
I wonder how many people take that option. Its legal (like Rove's little leak), but seems really sleazy. My guess is a whole lotta pro lifers warehouse their defective relatives on the state dime. It always seems to work that way with moralizers.
Hey Penske - next time you say I'm ruining the country, remember, I've actually lost money doing the right thing. What have you given up for the betterment of all of us, not just your own fucking family?
