Interesting concept, but it leaves me wondering how my disabled son would survive. He is cognitively incapable of sustaining anything more than the most meager job. Without his Social Security disability check, he would be forced to live on about $400 a month.

So what *is* the solution for care and feeding of the infirm amongst us in a nation with no taxation?
