The MAJORITY of Medicaid recipients are children

But it's up to their parents to pay for their health care of get an insurance policy. If you can't afford kids because you aren't working a full time job with benefits, then you should wait to have them.

Oh get off it. That is a VERY simplistic view of the problem. How are we going to deal with the problem NOW? "Sorry kids, no medical coverage or other benefits because your parents should have waited to get a decent job before they had you." Never mind that mom and dad have only a high school diploma and make about $9.50 an hour per person.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO NOW?

Should kids be made to suffer because their parents did stupid things?
