Comment: The Obamacare Administration is using Florida’s poor and truly needy as hostages, in an appalling effort to force Florida into swallowing another bucket-load of Obamacare. If you ever wondered whether Obamacare was really about caring for people, this should definitively answer your question firmly in the negative.
If Obamacare were really better, they wouldn’t have to force people. They wouldn’t have to play horrible games with poor people. They wouldn’t have to keep putting off the pain. And they wouldn’t have to lie…
“Scott and Bondi are suing over the federal government’s attempt to “coerce states into dramatically expanding their Medicaid programs by threatening to cut off federal funding for unrelated programs unless they ‘agree’ to do so,” according to the complaint.”
