Hey America - while you were sleeping the Republicans started to put out their plan to rip health care away from millions of Americans. Almost 14 million people lose their health care so the GOP can fund tax cuts for the rich.

The Congressional Budget Office tells Democrats that the GOP changes to Medicaid and the Obama health law will knock 13.7 million people off the health insurance rolls.

Likely that there are 13.7 million fraudsters in the Medicaid program. //

I hope Tanden is right: there are surely 14 million on Medicaid who are not actually poor. (One of my best friends, who died last year, was on it even though he had over a million dollars in the bank because he didn’t have any “income.”)

Obama extended Medicaid way beyond its mission. Here in NM our governor has a scheme to extend it to all working class (as opposed to poor) people.
