Not because you say so.

Hey Jindal,

If you really cared about your constituents, maybe you should stop being such an ideologue and help your poorest of poor constituents and expand Medicaid, so they at least some type of coverage.

I would think it would be more the equivalent to calling BO Barry.

You have ideas on how he will pay for this expansion?

He doesn't have to as the Feds have already said they'd pick up the tab.

Oh, the irony...

Perhaps it's my poor reading comprehension and all, but I'm not seeing the part were you claim you "repeatedly said domestic attacks inside the US specifically".

Can you point it out in that paragraph I was replying to?

RWNJ hate them some facts I tell ya. The domestic slime of today was the Klan, and those of their ilk of yesterday. What's also true...lynchings = domestic terrorism

For about 3 years, if I recall correctly.

Wouldn't that be like me purchasing something with no idea how I was going to pay for it after 3 years? I'd be called financially irresponsible.

It is 100% for the first 5 years (after which the Feds will still pay 80% of the balance in perpetuity) and I am fully convinced that, like most government entitlements, it won't go away and instead the subsidies will keep getting extended. Even if it does drop to "only" 80% free though then you can just repeal it if an 80% subsidy isn't enough for you but you might as well ride the five years of free medicaid expansion while you can especially as the hospitals in red states are literally going out of business due to unpaid medical bills while that virtually doesn't happen in the blue states which have expanded medicaid. The reason is those poor people who can't afford their medical insurance get automatically covered and that means hospitals don't get stiffed and thus insurance premiums are lower for everyone else.
