Eric Burlison: Medicaid must be reformed


(From Seventh District Congressman Eric Burlison)

Medicaid is broken—and it’s unethical for Congress to allow the program to fail because of yet another Obamacare domino effect.

What began as a lifeline for the truly vulnerable has been hijacked—turned into a sprawling welfare machine that punishes work and rewards dependency.

Able-bodied, childless adults who should be working are abusing this program—crowding out resources and driving costs through the roof.






 

States like California are rigging the system through deceptive tax schemes and shell games to inflate their Medicaid rolls to siphon billions from Washington.

No program can survive this level of corruption, fraud, and abuse. We must restore work requirements, end the scams, and return Medicaid to its original purpose: serving the truly needy.

Qatar's FREE 747.

Many voters will feel that trumps shafting the poors of Missouri via cutting Medicaid..

Also, Clarence Thomas only got a free RV. He probably feels left out.
