3. Since GOPers don't rely on facts . . .

majority of the people who rec'd Medicaid do work, majority work low wage jobs and many have children. Seniors who probably worked all their lives but still can't afford the high cost of health insurance on their retirement or social security (which GOPers want to kill SS) need both Medicaid and Medicare. Therefore, the ones who don't work and I'll say out of that % maybe 50% are on total disability or disability which leaves a small portion of the public who do rec'd Medicaid are able to work (most low paying jobs).
