3 deeply red states just voted for medicaid expansion

James, I understand the point you're trying to make on health care funding.
It's a legitimate health care -economics point of view.

What I don't understand is your need to constantly insult me while you do so.
If you wanted to sell someone a car , you wouldn't insult them .

" This is the best value on the lot and even a dumb fat fuck like you can see that."

Guess what happens next. The potential buyer walks off the lot and thinks you're an asshole.
Any factual info is long forgotten and the guy won't ever buy a car from you.

Fact: Obama cut funding on Medicare, this has hurt hospitals, causing many smaller ones to close, and the medicaid expansion helps but it does not solve (it might make up 5 of the 10 dollars they lost from the medicare cuts and cuts the Obamacare laws took away in previous revenue) the damage done by Obamacare ,  So obama caused many of the rural hospital closure's in your State via Obamacare, and you fail to see this, you just want to keep pointing out the 5 dollars from medicaid, and overlook the 10 that Obamacare took away in the first place, why you do this I haven't a clue except to think you are a dummy, or dishonest.





"expanding Medicaid to all of the poorest patients — would help, but wouldn't solve. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/11/12/rural-hospital-closings-federal-reimbursement-medicaid-aca/18532471/

I have a moral problem with any company making big profits from human illness .
I figure we all get sick and have loved ones that may deal with a serious illness.
 
In my OPINION, this is one area where compassion has to be a bigger priority then profits.
If everyone avoids being selfish, we can develop the best health care plan humanly possible.

And yet dummy your Obama took away funding from medicare and that along with the loss in revenue from Obamacare laws has closed many rural hospitals... You own that shit as you voted for obama!  so fukk off with you so called fake compassion as you and your ilk have wrecked havoc on rural hospitals.

I think you're gonna find out, Trump's a LOT more about HIM and his immediate family as his only real priority.
In my OPINION, I think he'll walk away from being POTUS as it's become tedious and stressful .
I don't think he gives a crap about the avg worker that adores him.

Granted every President has a huge ego, but see Trump as lacking basic leadership traits.
He seems very selfish, immature and refuses to acknowedlge any criticism .

You also thought killary was going to be president. It's pretty well known around here that you are a cnn talking PEZ head.

MediCARE and MedicAID are two very different things.   We're talking about M E D I C A I D  

In spelling perhaps.  But for the most part they are pretty much identical to a high degree (if you are comparing services and coverage).  mCARE is basically mCAID for seniors/disabled.   

mCARE :                                             mCAID
Age/disability based                              Income based
Paid into by Soc Sec taxes                     Not paid into by anything
Client worked all/most of life                 Client usually never works at all (or limited)
Small monthly copay                            Hardly ever a copay for anything


That is it in a nutshell.   Excluding the similarity in services and coverage,  they both come down to being funded by tax payers.  mCARE by taxes taken from the client themselves, and mCAID paid for by taxes taken from everyone else.
