A: Medicaid is set up to help people pay bills, not to take their money. If you have ample resources, you pay the nursing home for your care. If, however, your resources drop below a certain level, you may qualify for Medicaid. Medicaid pays the bills when you cannot afford to pay for yourself.
International Women's Day first emerged from the activities of labour movements at the turn of the twentieth century in North America and across Europe. Since those early years, International Women's Day has assumed a new global dimension for women in developed and developing countries alike.
The first Women's Rights convention took place at Seneca Falls in 1848, organised by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott. The movement was directed mainly by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and her friend Susan B. Anthony for most of the rest of the 19th century. Other early feminists included the remarkable Grimke sisters, who were ardent abolitionists and campaigners for women's rights as well.
