The administration is apparently so bereft of solutions that, a day earlier, Rollins bizarrely suggested that nonworking able-bodied Medicaid recipients (a cohort whose size she severely overstated) will replace deported farmworkers, toiling in fields to meet Medicaid work requirements that will be implemented under Trump’s budget.
They so intend to replace foreign workers with an internal slave labour pool.
I’ve never understood this logic. If they were able-bodied enough to do that kind of labor, wouldn’t they be…you know…working? They’re on Medicaid for a reason, right?
Yeah, I know, I know. The GOP and logic don’t mix. I get it. But it just boggles my mind how simple concepts like this escape them.
Or alternatively they are forbidden from working more because their current healthcare covers their medical needs but if they went full time they’d lose meeicaid coverage and receive subpar coverage from Target or whoever

The cool thing is lots of folks on medicaid are working. They just make so little money they qualify anyway.

But that’s a simple fix. Let’s just make sure everyone has healthcare. Make it universal, so nobody depends on working or not working to live.
Haven’t you heard? That’s communism.
People have been propagandized into believing they’re “free loaders”
They literally already said that Medicare folks can take the immigrants jobs.
Not kidding.
Children in Trump’s America will grow up playing in the mines!
