Do you believe that, in normal circumstances, we should repurpose all money typically spent on primary education and firefighting to go to elder care instead?
If you weren’t arguing for that last year then you believe in complicated trade-offs too.
The concept of trade-offs is the absolute core basis of all major public policy decisions.
It’s also the basic of many personal decisions. If you’re familiar with hospice care or a DNR order then you know that end of life questions have trade-off calculations as well, even within families or between life partners.
Pretending this is a binary decision is just nonsensical.
