A few posters saying the State should pay. But if we want Universal Health Care provided by the State throughout our lives, including Care Home costs in old age then the consequence of that is much much higher taxes. Nano's suggested big increase in Inheritance Tax is one option. The reality is no party gets elected by saying were going to massively increase tax and so it doesn't happen. The current arrangement is a bodge job but nobody can fix it.
