Here in GA retiring Gov Deal did not expand because the cost was expected. If Abrams wins, she will soon discover that the math just does not work.
Those are called anchor babies.
Wasn’t unexpected to anyone with a lick of sense........
Isn't socialism great!
"After Years of Trying, Virginia Finally Will Expand Medicaid"
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/30/health/medicaid-expansion-virginia.html
The state has a massive waiting list for the disabled, and they chose to go the route of expanded Medicaid anyway, where the state ends up with a portion of the bill.
In most states with expanded Medicaid, the total enrolled in Obamacare was 1/3 new Medicaid, 1/3 expanded Medicaid, and 1/3 in an actual paid plan.
Hey Virginia, welcome to Demokkkrat Realville!
Unexpected. The most technologically advanced civ ever and we can’t see the train coming.
Time for VA to start enforcing its Medicaid Estate Recovery laws.
Gonna hafta be a wholebunchalotta states doing that. Most have the laws already, but before Expanded Medicaid they were moot. Now there WILL be estates to tap into.
“The new costs, first reported by the Richmond Times-Dispatch, are unrelated to Virginias recent decision to expand Medicaid eligibility to low-income adults under the Affordable Care Act.”
I didn’t think much of Rick Perry in Texas, as he tried to flood the state with toll roads, built by his buddies (not to mention the Gardasil crap). But he did have enough conservative instinct to stay clear of the Medicaid expansion (figuring that we’d end up paying in some way) and Common Core (figuring anything ‘education’ related from DC is bad news).
Sadly, we still lost on Common Core as The Blob (as Thomas Sowell calls big education) has been able to work around Perry.
Having re-elected Tim Kaine, Virginia should face far worse than that.
Unexpected? you’d have to be blind not to see that one coming. Jeeze.....
Translation: "I'm dumber than a box of hammers when it comes to arithmetic..."
Unexpected.
SNORT.
