High Medicaid Sign Up Reveals How Bad Poverty Actually Is. That Wages Are Too Low.

There are so many low wage and no life sustaining jobs that the Medicaid sign up figures indicate that we are worse off than what economic numbers reveal. The abundance of food stamp jobs far outweighs the good jobs.

The road to universal health care is through Medicaid and Medicare. That is why the GOP is shitting its pants and so many states, particularly red ones, refused to take expanded Medicare. It would have reveals GOP malfeasance. And Reaganomics would have been exposed for the failure and fraud it has been.

We need to pound every R governor (including mine) who refused to expand Medicaid. It is simply inhumane to deny health care to the poor.
