What Reid gave Nelson I would think would be a violation of The Fourteenth Amendment. If the republican Senators demanded equal protection (benefits) therefore it would make the bill so expensive it couldn't pass muster with the General accounting office.
I hate the talk of armed revolution in these comments. Flame away, I don’t care.
That being said, from what I read, Nebraska now has an exemption for any increase in Medicaid funding which will have to be made up by the other states. Are there any Democratic Senators from other states who can be turned by the unfairness of this exemption? Or any other exemptions that have been given to other states? Create dissent in the ranks?
