The only problem with expanding the Medicaid program in Texas is who is going to pay for it when the federal government stops it contributions later on. That would be the tax payers in Texas. A study in Oregon has shown that Medicaid increased emergency room use. The exact opposite of what was promised by the current administration. This will increase the cost to everybody in the long run.

Carl Parker's blurb

Balderdash Mr. Parker, simply balderdash. Your viewpoint is stilted, tilted, and bitter. like your(not mine)president said: "Some folks have made just too much money". Drift off into your dreary world and don't write anything else, it is a waste of a good paper. Mr. Dodd can use the space to enlighten us further on your Teachers' Union thugs activities in BISD. No one else will carry the load.

Texas is not alone

One of the things so many conservatives do not understand, in my opinion, is that even those of us who work hard for a living can not afford health care. They seem to think that only those who don't work or can't work have a problem getting affordable health care. It is not that way at all. To afford health care from my job, I would have to pay more than 3/4 of my paycheck to insurance. That leaves me very little to live on. Food and shelter are higher priorities. When our health care is more expensive than we can afford, there is something wrong with the system. Just because you can afford insurance doesn't mean we all can. And that is what is wrong with the conservatives. They do not see beyond their own need and see that there are those, even in your own party, that have good jobs but overly expensive insurance. No one should have to choose between medical care and food and shelter. But we do. Every single day. And by the way, we pay taxes too. I am sure that our taxes cover a lot of the things the conservatives think are important that never gets to benefit the people.

health care

I am paying $600 dollars a month. and &$1,275 deductable for my spouse to have insurance. Because of OBAMA care. The insurance companies are $C%ewing us. So take car of that. Or more people will be uninsured. because I am going to have to drop it so I can pay for food & utilities.

Texas is not alone

If I ever find a Democrat that doesn't break out the "on the backs of our sick children" BS... I think I'll die.

There's a huge difference in not having health insurance and not having health CARE!

And whether they go to the ER or get Obamacare... it's the tax payer that will be paying for it.
