I have a question please.

CHIP is a poor substitute for expanded Medicaid. Originally Posted by preggolover89

It was Fluffy69 ... just consider the source and ignore it.

It seems like you're saying that indigent care was fine before the ACA (or fine now in Texas since they didn't expand). A classmate asked the CEO of a non-profit insurance company recently how he would respond to that statement. He said (praphrasing): "anyone who thinks indigent care is sufficient right now in Texas should come ride with me for a day and then see how they feel."

His insurance company was started by the main source of indigent care (county hospital) in a major city that you're noting was so great before the ACA.

I realized there's absolutely nothing I can write that will affect your opinion whatsoever, just posting so others can see and understand what's at stake. Healthcare in Texas, especially for the poor, was not and is not sufficient. Originally Posted by preggolover89

Who gives a fuck what you post .... ? It's all cut & paste bullshit.

Flghtr, are you still channeling Professor Gruber, even after all this time?

Jesus Christ. I guess you just can't help yourself!

The only good thing about those POS's and their followers is how much money I'm making in Kimberly Clark stock dividends from their bulk buys of Kleenex, Charmin and Depends since shrilLIARy's loss !!! :wa vetowel2:

Let's be honest, shall we? The single reason we have Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and even Obamacare is so Democrats can buy votes from the poor and disadvantaged. Health care is a by-product. And government health care is typically poor, at best. So any attempt to control costs is met with, "They're going to take your health care away!" Get it in your head. Government doesn't help people. Government BUYS people! They get them hooked on "free" stuff, and they've got them for life, unless the person involved discovers s/he's a slave and fights for freedom.

Government never asks "How much do we need to spend to make sure people are cared for?" But "How much will keep them voting for us?"


Government is not your friend.

Republican Texas Rep. Pete Sessions co-sponsored an alternative health care bill with Republican Senator Bill Cassidy of La. The bill removes the individual mandate of the ACA and leaves the rest of the ACA law as is. It also allows tax credits for a Health Savings Account. Are Sessions and Cassidy "liberal progressives" trying to shove idiot policies on society?

R.M. wanted to know what will Medicaid be replaced with since Trump wants to repeal and replace the ACA (or at least some parts of it). She probably has a friend who benefits from Medicaid, a policy that as you say was shoved on society. Do you think less of that friend who may depend on that policy?

A majority of the voters in the U.S. want to get rid of OBAMACARE, and Trump championed their cause! That's one reason he WON!!!!

AND that is another reason HillaryNoMore LOST .. with Obaminable, the Media, and a LOT MORE MONEY! She was STUPID like YOU!

You are still LOSING!

The maximum monthly income limits that were posted came from this link LL. This is your link LL. If a family of 4 makes more than $386 per month, they will not qualify for the benefit. You call that a great program?

Keep trying to adopt what the Texas website says in your lameass attempt to appear correct ... I talk to at least 30-40 people a year regarding health insurance resources in Texas ... which began BEFORE OBAMACARE ... You can cut and paste all the liberal Gruber bullshit you want ... and twist the shit around to fit your demented perspective .... the reality is quite different from your bullshit ... You don't know what the fuck you are talking about!

...However, you have to be really poor to qualify for "Original Medicaid". To qualify you would have be a family of 4 and make less than $16,000. This is considered the poverty level.

2. ...... The state of Texas does not have Expanded Medicaid. .....


5. ...... If your friend is getting help from the state of Texas it is something other than "Expanded Medicaid".

1. Click on your link https://hhs.texas.gov/services/healt...n-managed-care

2. Click on Medicaid and Chip which will be on the left of page near the top.

3. Click on Adult Caring for a child which will be the second bullet from the top in the center of the page.

4. Click number three will take you to the maximum monthly income limit table.

The maximum monthly income limits table comes from your link. You can call it bullshit information if you want to.

One more time the state of Texas did not take the expanded Medicaid option from the ACA law. What I wrote in a prior post was correct. I was not talking about state changes/adjustments to the original Medicaid law that was signed by LBJ that Texas or any other state may have made. Let's keep apples to apples and oranges to oranges.

You don't know what the Fuck you are talking about faggot.

Or were you just projecting your innerself outwardly?

.... the subject of medicaid and Trump wanting to depose of it came up. Would anyone here know what the replacement will be? Thanks. Originally Posted by R.M.

R.M. yesterday there was an interview of Paul Ryan by Hannity, who pressed him regarding Trump's campaign rhetoric with respect to "Obamacare," and Ryan discussed what he understood (at this point) to be the legislative initiative Congress (the House) will begin in January (Before the inauguration) to begin the dismantling of Obamacare, which may necessarily require some tweaking with respect to "Medicaid," which the Dems tied to Obamacare.

You might want to find that interview and listen/read it.

Paul Ryan knows more about it than anyone posting in here, AND he's been "bean counting" post-election to see what the "attitude" is regarding dismantling Obamacare and replacing it with a more viable alternative. He was extremely positive about the opportunity to do so and the results. That may give you a better idea, because I think it's a mixed bag with Medicaid.
