WHO CARES IF THE POOR HAVE MEDICAID?

         Not Governor Rick Scott and some of his Republican counterparts!
         They are saying they will opt out of the Medicaid expansion provision of the Affordable Care Act, something they are permitted to do under the Supreme Court’s recent ruling.
         The program would cost the States nothing for the first three years. It is paid for completely by the Federal government. After three years the states would then kick in just ten percent of the cost.
         The governors would rather deny millions of their low income residents access to Medicaid than accept Federal aid! But that’s how they plan to oppose Obamacare. It makes no sense, and it shows the Republicans’ complete disregard of those who cannot afford health insurance.
         At some point the poor and the middle class are going to wake up and realize who’s on their side. It’s certainly not the Republicans!
