Yes, what do you think elder care homes are for? TO GET RID OF THEM ON THE PRETENSE OF CARE.
No, i think theyre to turn a profit.
Yes. They profit off of the service being provided, which is corralling the elderly in a place where others don't have to be bothered by their existence, essentially "getting rid of them" on the pretense of providing care.
We exist under capitalism. Everything is presumed to be generating a profit. That's a requirement under the current system. It is what they are profiting from that is in question.
Yeah but there's profit so it's fine.
