I am sitting on the phone waiting for someone from the Social Security office to answer. They arbitrarily denied Nan her SSI benefits last week (and her SSI has the medicaid benefit attached which is what pays for her community resources program that really doesn't do anything anyway BUT....) and as our insurance company has decided to release her from coverage again, I guess I will try to see if anyone has any in the heck idea why! I marvel at human capacity when I watch a plane fly overhead or hear an aria or a symphony or a ballet or tour a beautiful cathedral in Europe and with the very same breath that causes me to marvel, I am also compelled to wonder how we can mess things up so badly! How can intelligent, capable, sophisticated individuals have created a government and society that is so complex and difficult to navigate that fewer and fewer individuals are capable of figuring out taxes, benefits, insurance, retirement and investment plans, banking procedures and mailing processes. Oh my goodness...
Now, if I were an intelligent and capable person I would cease my ranting and get on with something more productive. Thanks for allowing me to the figuratively 'kick the wall'
