walkitoutAltho I don't think that's what Ellen Goodman is grousing about here:

If there was even the slightest bit of awareness here that we've come full circle when she says things like:
"nursing care has already been outsourced to family members"
I might mind this particular screed a little less. Certainly, I am sympathetic to her complaint. I could wish she'd focused more on how not only the work but the RISKS have been off-loaded on Suckers R Us. As an inveterate DIY'er, my net reaction is, therefore, meh.
