EVERYBODY is angry if an old person is mugged in the street. Is it not the same if the care homes are closed?

After a lifetime's hard work everything is taken away. We complain about young people having no respect for the old.

We aren't doing very well, are we?

It is unbelievable that closing the homes should be even considered.
