sdb Please no one become upset this is just my own interpretation and I am not into politics at all. Medicaid is for those who do not contribute to any income tax. So then I think they also can own nothing no house. Now medicaire traditionally is for the older people who worked all their lives and contributed taxes to the government. At retirement it was supposed to help take care of them and their medical also. Disability falls under medicaire also. Say you get sick and can no longer work as happened to me I applied got Disability which is under Medicaire. I've paid taxes my whole life so this is like the government helping to care for me and help with meds. If you don't give should you get I think is foremost in a lot of minds. Also docs are not taking medicaire patients as the payment isn't as high as private insurance. Which I had from my job til could no longer work. Phillipa
