Probably one of the better bits of prose in re to the societal and political morass of Sweden:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentis...19/sweden-loss-trust-moral-vacuum?INTCMP=SRCH
Now I'll inject some polemic here:
I had the good fortune of caring for my father in the last year of his life - I didn't want him to be abused by nursing facility staff at either private or publicly run care homes. It is appalling that elderly and dementia-ridden human beings are lying in their own excrement - Having seen first-hand the horror of what goes on because the politicians write the contracts as to how much care shall be provided it is preferable to care for one's own parents. I have said to my mother that my wife and I will care for her when she is not able to anymore. Whats the matter with the younger generation today? They wish not to care for their parents??? Is the pursuit of their own self-fulfillment just so over-ridingly important that they are ready to pitch their parents into the care of the State or private enterprise-run facilities??? My Lord!!! It makes me want to gag!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Of course, any number of excuses will come up as to why. No, I am not insensitive to those who have no children of their own - There are possibilities available - Yes, there are exceptions to the "horror facilities".
One's "Golden Years" are too important to be a pawn in the political chess-game that is currently being played out in Western Society.
