America finally facing someone who has Mussolinis willingness to see people die and it's not who you think
Rosaline is a 60-year-old Floridian who hopes she doesnt get seriously ill because shed be wiped out by the increase in her already burdensome medical debt. She has no insurance, and wont qualify for Medicare for another 5 years.
Ron DeSantis is just fine with this. Cruelty is his trademark.
During the pandemic, Congress appropriated billions to help states expand their Medicaid programs. That money is coming to an end this year, meaning Florida which refused to expand Medicaid with the federal subsides offered by the Affordable Care Act is set to throw another 2 million or so residents off their only possible source of health insurance.
Still, Ron DeSantis refuses to expand Medicaid, even though 93 percent of the cost is covered with money from Washington, DC. Its the principle of the thing, apparently: hes one of 11 red state governors who believes that working poor people simply shouldnt get health coverage. After all, they didnt have the good sense to be born into a wealthy family!
