This feels like a flimsy solution to the problem that will fail. I guess that when Medicaid recipients don’t/won’t/can’t sign up, the government will take away their healthcare and use slave labor from prisons to catch up.

I think in six months they will be saying: "hey we tried this idea with Medicare recipients, but they just wanted to stay home and play video games. Now our crops are in danger of not being harvested.

What if… We round up some of these bad prisoners and make them work for almost free!? That will kill two stones."

I don’t think I’ll be able to squeeze in field time with my actual fucking jobthat doesn’t pay me enough for medical expenses

How do these bastards not know that most states already required Medicaid recipients to have a fucking job? I don’t agree with those state requirements at all but the facts were already there. Fucking Nazi ableist assholes.

A better idea would be using Medicaid recipients to replace incompetent cabinet secretaries.

sure—start a GOP-mandated strawberry picking job that you need to keep Medicaid coverage while recovering from knee replacement surgery—is there some kind of problem with your bootstraps, mate?

…thanks Obama?

Wow, these people are just so very stupid.

…and to reiterate - I’m sure all the both-siderist Elevated Centrists and the more-leftist-than-thou types have a good explanation about how Biden/Harris would have been doing the same stupid things because something something “status quo”?
