Someone told me my posts were too political and I should focus more on health.
Health IS political.
I wish it wasn’t. I wish we could agree that everyone deserves universal healthcare and a basic income. Access to food, meds and shelter.
Until that point, politics & health remain intertwined

Here is the problem with work requirements for Medicaid.
You have to have a very low income to qualify for Medicaid.
If you do get a job that does not have health insurance benefits and you make over a certain income, you will lose Medicaid and paying for health ins will eat up much of your income.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.
We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.
We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

5/ The bill cuts the help middle income Americans get to buy health care on the Affordable Care Act exchange.
A 60 year old couple making $85,000 (not a king's ransom) would see a $26,000 increase in health care premiums. Yes, that's right - $26,000.

Low-income workers who are covered by Medicaid are generally in jobs that don't provide health benefits. Without Medicaid, they'd be uninsured.
Mike Johnson: "We have to eliminate people on Medicaid who are not actually eligible to be there. Able-bodied workers for example, young men who should never be on the program at all."

I don't understand why I see things so differently. I see a health insurance industry that thinks it's entitled to charge people 1/3rd of their income for healthcare. That industry shouldn't be "fixed." It should be burned to the ground and its ashes pissed on.
