    Ehhhh. Sorta? Not in the way that I think you think. This will be a thing, but it’ll be for people who were otherwise mentally disabled.

    You’d be surprised the mental diversity of adults, especially in the US. Like apparently some fraction of adults with a whole number on the denominator are functionally illiterate, yet they don’t need assisted living homes.

      As if the USA would provide that service for them. Many people do need help but instead live in squalor and are often only cared for, if at all, by burnt-out family members while everyone involved lives well below the poverty line.

      It’s not a good place.
