Is Medicaire welfare?
Some people think it is welfare. It’s a govt program. What about Obamacare? Is it welfare when people are under penalty if they don’t buy it? Govt can use either of these programs to control your life. I would rather just let people make their own decisions about what foods they buy. I agree that things like alcohol, soda, paper towels, candy shouldn’t be paid for, but don’t tell me to buy fresh produce when I can get canned vegetables that are cheaper, that often taste better, and they have a much better shelf life.
Apples and oranges, doofus.
Medicaire (sic) is funded through (non-government) worker's paycheck deductions for their entire working lifetime
Welfare is redistribution of money stolen, earned by other people with real, productive jobs.
