A Crisis We Can, and Must, Avoid

  We are facing a growing epidemic of unlawful and abusive guardianships. If we don't stop the predatory practice, then the same fate awaits each and every one of us.
  
  Guardians and their attorneys are getting rich off the backs of the vulnerable and helpless -- and they're doing it "legally".
  
  Wards are forced into nursing homes against their will --- property sold, personal possessions sold or destroyed, investments seized and all rights stripped from them, including the all important right to complain about being exploited by their court-appointed "protectors".
  
  Families are threatened with bankruptcy from the constant litigation efforts to free their loved one, sadly in vain.
  
  The guardians and attorneys just get richer by giving their Wards the shaft.
  
  When there's no money left, the guardians move on to their next victim, leaving Mr. and Mrs. Taxpayer with the Medicaid tab. No one's keeping track of how much each state loses in needless Medicaid dollars spent because of the intentional pauperization of the Wards in this "legalized" lawyer welfare program.
  
  Their biggest windfall is yet to come: the Baby Boomers.
  
  Unless we stop them.
