[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 350204, member: 1550"] I love the bill. I like the idea of expanding Medicaid to those who make too much to qualify but cant' afford private insurance OR the high priced insurance possibly offered at work. Many people will benefit. The way I look at it, if we can fight two wars and bail out Wall Street and big business, it's time for the little guy to get a break. My son, and many of our kids, won't be working at 18, like we hope..just being realistic. They will need coverage, including mental health care, and disability is not easy to get. Many of our kids, my own included I'm afraid, fall between the cracks. And for those who don't trust government, I actually like Wisconsin's Medicaid much better than any insurance I've ever had. They cover everything. There is no hassel. There is no copay. medications are covered. It's a big relief to our lower income family to know that we can always get good treatment. Sadly we have to make sure we don't make too much and we do make sure. Sometimes I write and make money under the table. You do what you must to survive. All in all, I am grateful. I always felt that healthcare is a right, not a luxury. [/QUOTE]
