"If it's not expanded, Florida could lose more than $1 billion in federal hospital aid."

then we should lose the $1 billion in federal aid NOW... and learn to live without it.

going cold turkey is the only way

“then we should lose the $1 billion in federal aid NOW... and learn to live without it.”

I don’t agree. This is monies taken from FLORIDA taxpayers when the i.r.s. extorts it. It has to come back or it’s no different than 230 years ago with the king of england.

I know, unlike most of the subdued, mindless masses, this is not the ‘horror’ they portend; and you are exactly correct, end it NOW.

Am I supposed to feel dread that the citizens of all 50 States are to assist in ‘aiding’ the residents of the State of Florida (whereas FL would, in essence, be getting their taxpayers $$ back from big FED govt)?? What other ‘charity’ should the GUN of govt allow the hand of govt to pick me/our pockets?

Damn, how I detest the word games played that have covered the eyes of most...
