Yes, but the truly needed is a small fraction of those living off the government dole. This is why it was a horrible mistake for the government to get into this business. It should be left to the charities, who are so much better at vetting the lazy from the needy.

We’re known for being fat and lazy. Our healthcare system is failing because it’s being forced to care for too many people who aren’t taking care of themselves (the main things driving up healthcare costs? Heart disease, diabetes, related complications and even some types of cancer linked to poor lifestyle choices).
As for people who actually have good excuses for needing care? I’d say people who are mentally or physically disabled, or suffering from health conditions that are out of their control.

There are many people who are completely disabled by age, diseases, or mental conditions. My mother, for example, is disabled by all three. Age 93, heart disease, and severe brain damage due to stroke.
