Family Care-giving for medically-impaired seniors is an unrecognized institution that benefits this country enormously. What consequences would be suffered by the country if family caregivers were to back away from the sacrifices that they must make to do this? How should the tax code be altered to be fairer to family caregivers?
I think it is almost universal that mothers and other family caregivers are supposed to work for free. If women were big and mean it would probably be different. But if they were big and mean, they probably wouldn't be caregivers. :)
