But Aero, your statements were correct..you just typed the wrong program name
Yes, we should be wishing for a decrease in medicaid rolls and not clapping that the program is expanding which tells us that the poverty line is moving up the ladder here by 133%.
It's not a secret that Kasich is a huge fan of the government.
Actually, Kasich was the only member of the old Gingrich cabal that i think truly believes in small government. The rest of them were phonies IMO. Well, him and Mike Pence...he's a believer too.
That said, running a state and being a congressman are two different realities. He can jump up and down all he wants, but at the end of the day, he wanted the ACA. And like i said in my other post, the other GOP governors do too.

Here in Texas we have a hospital group pushing it saying Perry is wrong.
They say it will be a big benefit to jobs and the economy. Figures..that is coming from a hospital group.
And they make it sound like it will be 100% fully funded by the Fed for over a decade which is not true.
fully funded for 2 years only and then transitioned off to the state to fund.
Looks like John Kasich of Ohio got religion in recent days. Something tells me that all of these GOP governors that were jumping up and down about their hatred of Obamacare were just putting on a show for the election. I'm starting to doubt that they hated the bill the whole time. They really wanted this bill, and the holdouts STILL want this bill, they just don't wanna admit it. From the link:
Do you really believe that he hadn't figured that out and wasn't in favor of it right from the beginning? I don't. But of course, he had to play along in order to make it look good.
Eventually every state in the union will love so called Obamacare. I know when I am a 60 something year old man. Obamacare will be as popular as Medicare, and Social Security.
And conservatives will all claim to love Obamacare.

The Feds pay 100% for the first three years, after that they pay 90%.
Lets see what makes more logical sense?
Should I let the broke a$$ stupid federal gvt pay 100% for a couple of years and then 90% after or
Should I let those who still can not afford insurance show up at emergency rooms for treatment and if they need surgery or care stiff the hospitals and thus driving up cost for those with insurance.
What would you do?

He celebrates the expansion, because it increases his liberal/socialist ways. He is quite happy, persons who generate NOTHING or VERY LITTLE to the system are going to benefit. To him/her there is nothing wrong with it. Happy once gain to get something, so as long as someone else pays for it. The liberal/socialist way.
