The Right Scoop via CBS ^ | 10-25-2013 | The Right Scoop via CBS

Medicaid is the goal - a single, government payer.

No problem, Obamacare is to big to fail so he will subsidize it with our tax money.

Yes it is. I copied and pasted that from The Right Scoop and it is in error.

The media helps to create a nation where half of the people are useless eaters and then they are *SHOCKED* that those people eat and are useless. Idiots.

People being given the choice between free Medicaid that actually works or such obscenely high priced ObamaCare insurance that has such a high deductible that it covers none of your medical bills while bankrupting you financially in the process and then choosing the free Medicaid if you qualify is surprising highly trained Journalistic professionals?

And we actually listen to the opinion's (masquerading as carefully vetted objective reporting, of course) of these morons and take them seriously?

Don't know who is stupider - them for the BS they spew or us for listening to them

It’s all part of wealth transfer. The subsidized care goes primarily to Obama voters. Medicaid users are welcome. But, if they come too fast and too soon, there’s an “optics” problem.

Well, we can't really expect CBS News to realize that Medicaid and Medicare are two different programs, can we? I mean, they would actually have to have employees who can tell their pie hole from their poop hole.

Medicare is only for seniors.”

And a whole lot of one of my docs patients who are under 65 but on SSI are also getting Medicare. So it’s not only for seniors and it has to be in serious financial trouble.

I don’t think the $500B the Democraps siphoned out of Medicare to cook the books is going to last long in the Medicaid program.

I saw that last week CA alone had enrolled 600,000 on Medicaid. Just think what would happen if all States had decided to expand coverage!
