Well, Dave, to answer your question of not getting out of bed....
If we legislate that, then the masses will begin to develop bed sores, and
their muscles will start to atrophie (sp?). This, in due course, will lead
to new legislation toward bed manufacturer's, and the safety of their
product.
Which will, in turn again, lead to new legislation regarding the home
builder's for building more accessible homes (for whom I don't know)...
it is the never ending story...
What we really need to do here is completely re-vamp our legislative body,
and how it thinks. Their whole premise is to:
1) Get elected: to do that, they make promises they can't keep
2) Once elected, they need to 'make new laws' to cover all the promises they
made but could not keep.

Maybe we are all better off back in caves???
