Can someone explain to me in retard terms what we have now, what is being proposed, and what the consequences and benefits of each side are? The news web sites no longer report actual news.
Thanks in advance.

Well, it's not very effective to go to the emergency room for your kid who has asthma or other conditions they may have develop along the way if they don't have regular doctors check up.

For some people, putting food on the table is hard, $40/month may be a lot of money to put aside. Plus, if your kid is born with a diseases, $40/month may be out of the question.

Sure, there are people who have hardships and in some cases, when your child is born with a disease, you receive Medicaid. There are also people out there who just choose to spend their money on booze.

This country has plenty of people who are genuinely suffering and need help and then there are those that milk the system for every penny that it's worth. I want those that need help to get it and those that are fraudulently receiving help to have it taken away. In the past, the federal government has not been able to do those two things.
