Why do red states keep voting to expand Medicaid

---

Because the majority of all Americans dumb and like free shite

They think it’s free and they don’t have to pay for it.

Because despite states going red in national elections and state wide elections, there are still Dems in every state. And let’s be honest, most old school republican politicians are social conservatives, physical opportunists.

I expect us to have Medicare for All in the next 10 yrs without that much pushback from the GOP honestly.

I agree.

Nation of moochers.

It won’t be “Medicare for all” it will be Government run healthcare for all paid at Medicaid rates or worse. The word Medicare just polls well because people over 65 like their Medicare coverage and price

The color of the state isn't who they vote for president. Look at who runs the 2 larges cities and governor of this state.

Its red for president which ain't got shite to do with local policy making.

That was in the last few weeks here in Oklahoma...

And I blame people not researching the state questions before voting.

90% of this state vehemently opposes the ACA, yet they voted for what is basically an expansion of Obamacare. Talked to a couple friends who voted for it, and they denied that it was what I claimed it was, so I looked it up on my phone and showed them what they voted to pass...

And they both immediately developed buyers remorse after seeing that what I said was true. Too late now.

Again, I believe that it's ignorant people not thoroughly researching the SQs.

I'm in Oklahoma. I think the closing and bankruptcy of rural hospitals was a big selling point. We have several small town hospitals closing or close to it. In my business we deal with a few hospitals that are on their second post bankruptcy realignment. People don't want to drive 70 miles to OKC or Tulsa for elective surgeries or emergency room visits.

In Missouri all the rural counties voted no...STL and KC's population pushed it thru.

I guess all the STL and KC folks are happy. More free stuff.


On a good note, Gold is over $2K! Silver at $25 and my 401K is up. It's in a 2030 fund. The big fear I have it that Dems will be coming after our 401K if they get power.
