In April 1966, with the economy running hot and workers in short supply, California gubernatorial candidate Ronald Reagan did not mince words about the wisdom of providing government money to the unemployed or about the character of recipients.
“Unemployment insurance,” Reagan is reported to have told a Republican dinner crowd, “is a prepaid vacation for freeloaders.”
Whether Reagan actually meant those words is questionable, but a half-century later they still echo albeit less harshly in the debate over possible reasons for the recent gap between available jobs and workers willing to fill them. Suspicions remain that among the nation’s unemployed are slackers exploiting the pandemic-related benefits flowing from Washington and state governments.
My Turn: Biden’s long step towards long-term care AL NORMAN

Back in the early 1980s, I recall meeting U.S. Sen. Claude Pepper of Florida, the elderly rights champion, at a rally of advocates in Cambridge. Pepper told the crowd: “I hope to live long enough to see long-term care become part of the Medicare Program.” Pepper died in 1989 and his dream has still not come true 32 years later.
Federally sponsored health care has been a long time coming. Franklin Roosevelt thought about national health care in 1935. Harry Truman proposed it in 1945. Dwight Eisenhower signed a small program in 1960. JFK proposed his own version in 1961. LBJ took a big bite of it in 1965. Now Joe Biden wants to take a serious shot at expanding long-term care in 2021.
