        Because you have to work ? That’s why they could lose coverage? I don’t see a link. That’s how i get my coverage... from working.

        All able bodied persons should be required to work a minimum number of hours weekly/monthly to qualify for ANY type of government assistance. Why is this an issue at all?

        I'm sure there are qualifications to continue coverage. But people that are just sitting on their lazy butt and taking free money is not acceptable... Vette them!

        Excerpt: “If residents don't submit information that proves they work, attend school or job training, or volunteer at least 80 hours a month during three months a year, they could be frozen from applying for Medicaid until next year.”

        Unemployment is at an all time low, taxes are down and wages are up. It’s time for people to get to WORK. Does anyone remember past times when collecting welfare was something people DID NOT want to do and avoided at all costs?

        “Thousand of American’s.” By latest estimation there are about 325 million Americans. This is a telling piece of liberal strategy. They will argue to maintain failed programs that continuously harm millions because doing away with or reforming it “may harm thousands.”

        Can't believe how judgmental people are. "Just get a job" - not always so easy. My son could qualify for Medicaid, but we haven't applied cause we can support him. It took him 8 mos to find a job. Now that he has one, they are only giving him 8 hrs/week. If he didn't have us...
