Congress shouldn’t cut Medicaid

The proposed Republican budget would slash a number of vital services to people. I’m particularly concerned about proposed Medicaid cuts.

In my business I work with hospitals and get to see the enormous good that Medicaid does by allowing children and low-income families access to our very expensive healthcare system.

It just isn’t right that Congress should even consider cutting this important program.

Forget the sick. We have a war to wage.

Cutting 30 billion from Medicaid is essential so that we can continue funding a 200-300 billion dollar "war" against terror each year. Don't forget, they are also cutting 3.5 billion in funding for child support enforcement.

If you are rich enough to own your own jet, the Republicans are representing you. The rest of you are simply voting against your own best interests by supporting the GOP.

It isn't terrorists that are coming to get you. It's this Congress and Administration. They won't rest until we're all broke.

That's OK. The Democrats have a solution. Its Hillary Clinton.

4 years of lying and cheating. Wonder if she'll have an intern and what HER name will be.
