[quote=Anonymous] On Medicaid it is likely to be those that states have added to Medicaid in recent years where the federal government pays 90% of the cost to the state's 10% I believe for at least a period of time. For individuals with a disability, the match if 50/50 and that is why there is such a waiting list for services funded under what is called a Developmental Disability Medicaid Waiver (DDWaiver). Rather than throw folks off of Medicaid, why not take the time to renegotiate the percentage that a state might pay closer to that of those with a disability. The reorganization is basically two men of wealth -o ne of extreme wealth and intelligence(did not say smarts ) - but both men driven by power grab and seeking retribution in various ways. Both want to see world of the 1950s with healthy, white males in charge and as little as possible of women and even less of any minority group. They just can't deal with the way the country and world is evolving around them. The elderly will pay the same cost as the young - no longer useful and a "drain on the economy" or should I say a block to the ultra wealthy getting a tax break along with corporations. If you want something to do, pick up the phone and start calling your congressmen and senators, especially if Republican and letting them know you will not be voting for them in the future.[/quote]
