If tweet fails to load, click here. Rumors of what senate is doing to Medicaid:
1) more regulation over states fraudulenty using provider taxes to cheat feds out of money
2) sliding scale premiums and deductibles for nondisabled adults
3) requiring states, which currently have healthier budgets than the Feds, do foot greater percentage of costs
Senate gop thinks Medicaid reform can put a sizeable dent in budget overruns.

Senators looking to get some kick backs from the states. This will be negotiated down to nothing. I hate those frickers.

I like all of it except:
That penalizes states that are fiscally responsible. Doesn’t seem fair.

This type of wording is what Dems spout and it scares people. It should instead be called eliminating Medicaid waste and fraud.

Have they thought about a sliding salary based off of their approval ratings?

This alone would help tremendously.
Just think what these people could do if they didn't tie everything to a bullshite 2,000 page monstrosity of an omnibus bill.

It is all waste and fraud
We’re wasting taxpayer money on single moms and their future criminal kids

Now do welfare reform.
Able bodied 18-65 year olds need to work to receive any benefits, and those benefits should only be available for short periods of time. Not a way of life, but a helping hand.

Socialism isn't fair.
Conservative States such as my great State of Oklahoma, that actually run a budget surplus, are going to have to pay more now to the feds as punishment for doing things the right way? Awesome.
I wish we hadn't ever moved away from the skeleton-crew federal government designed by our founding fathers. The founders literally designed the framework of federal government to be idiot-proof, and the idiots still managed to destroy us.

This requires a definition of “vulnerable people.” Unwilling to work to provide for oneself and one’s children shouldn’t fall within that definition.
