We should start by federalizing Medicaid for the elderly (and privatizing it for the poor through inclusion of poor families in the government or private firm providing them with training or benefits as if they were employees). We could then fund this with a VAT-like net business receipts tax, with offsets for employers who fund long term care for employees - including for dementia. That way we can at least get lower costs, as long as we make sure that quality does not suffer.
