Obviously that's not Christopher Walken. That's Christopher Dancen.

Here’s one

An oldie but a goodie.

Where are the classes to have this mental fitness?
Or do I need to be a cop / become corrupted / disillusioned quit and be reborn with a proper strength to hold my ground.

Or just lawyer up.

Oldie but goodie.

An oldie but always a goodie.

It is in here somewhere as a dupe. These golden oldies are hard to find, so I haven't even looked!

Still made me laugh!

A good reminder to those who say the Jews have a historic right to Israel, the Assyrians, Egyptians, and primarily Canaanites have an older, so by your criteria more valid right to control the area.

What would you recommend for an alternative here? There are inevitably going to be seniors who don't have family available to help them, and who reach a point where they're unable to care for themselves. I can only think of four options at that point:
1) Hope there's a local charity that is willing to take care of them, has adequate funding to do so, and isn't abusive. If this is unregulated there's a high likelihood of abuse occurring, and if it is regulated then you have government involved, which appears to be something you'd oppose. There's also the issue of unequal access - if it's charitable then it's inherently not mandated, so it's nearly certain some people will not have any such charity in their area (see #3).
2) Somehow have private, non-charitable entities handle it? I've no idea how this would work, as any non-charity is pretty much by definition motivated by profit, and a profit motive plus caring for the elderly is certain to lead to abuse (perhaps not in all cases, but I'd expect it to be quite common).
3) Nothing / good luck, oldies.
4) Government intercession.

In this case, a safety net facilitated by the government strikes me as the best of the available options. The problems highlighted in the video seem likely to stem from insufficient oversight and planning. I'd wager that's due to lack of funding, as this is exactly the sort of program which would be seen as a low-risk target when budget cuts come around, at least from an electoral perspective. After all, if the people impacted by this are those who don't already have people in their life who care for and can advocate for them, and being put under guardianship removes their voting rights, then where's the harm to a politician in reducing the funding?

It seems to me that a well-funded guardianship program, with proper oversight in place, would have the best chance of minimizing the suffering of elderly individuals who can no longer care for themselves. I can understand the libertarian preference for minimal governmental interference in the lives of the public, but this strikes me as a case where that simply doesn't work. If you can think of a viable option #5, or can make a case for 1, 2, or 3 being legitimately more helpful than a well-run option #4 (which is clearly NOT what's discussed in the video), I'm absolutely open to considering it. At the same time, implementing #4 in a way which doesn't leave it vulnerable to budgetary volatility is also a not-insignificant challenge.

Damn, I'm procrastinating really well tonight. That was long.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Wow - that was a golden oldie from days of yore. ;-)

this ones an oldie.. but still a goodie. Its right up there with franklins muffler concusion.

It isn't defining other peoples relationships. It is defining something tangible based on a universal. But that's an old subject between us.

And I didn't coin the Nazi reference, nor the cockersucker one, in that those were oldie but goodies from Stewart himself as he made fun of conservative pundits, as was implied by the previous paragraph--almost spelled it out actually.

Also, you had quoted Chaos and I was saying directly to him that he had implied it was learned behavior. Now I am not sure...did you think I meant the Stewart video?

Abrams IS a hack. he never even liked star trek but repeated all the old images with added lens flares and fake looking shiny CGI bullshit.
Expect the same.
There is no love or inspiration here, just the product of a billion dollar business deal between fat cynical capitalists and later their mercenary artisitically bankrupt stooge for hire.
Doing anything interesting is the only way to get fired for him (see Antman).
Also, that doesn't look like han solo, anymore than the crystal skull oldie looked like indiana jones.
