BREAKING: In the next 48 hours, the Trump Administration is planning to issue policy on how states can stop people from receiving Medicaid coverage if they don’t have a job.

And they plan to put this in action in their first state— Kentucky.

"Bring it on, Mr. President. Kentucky has the HIGHEST Unemployment rate, the highest rate of POOR people in the country. Loafers every one of them."

What a DEPLORABLE man.

3. So Insidious....

Taking every step to prove their position that you can't trust the government with your health care. If this is true it's beyond belief in it's mean and stupid thinking....Seriously??? Sick people need to work to see a doctor?

6. Poor sick people. Many elderly. Dunno how the f*ck they're supposed to work.

But the Repig attitude is that poor people are poor due to moral failing and that they're all freeloaders. So thus the work requirement and their targeting of Medicaid and Food Stamps.

4. That makes no sense... So no health care for the disabled

I guess the culling is underway.

8. As did the previous Indiana Governor.......

Let us not forget his compassion for the poor, hungry, sick, marginalized, imprisoned, and hungry.

9. Insert the words "Lack of"

in front of "his" and "compassion" and you've got an accurate sentence (though sarcasm is obviously implied here)

I was being a tad sarcastic . But you got the gist of what I was getting at.
