If you loved Medicaid expansion under Obama, just wait til Trump doubles down on that expansion:
Trump Says He’d Use Medicaid to Expand Insurance Coverage
@sinkspur This is true, I heard him say it, don't have to go to your link to know it is true.
And, don't forget paid maternity leave for mother and father and care for an elderly parent.
I have lived a long time and those early years, my parents were responsible for their lives and mine - there was no government help. My father had a job, and he had a garden for food and grew two pigs every year and we had fruit trees of various kinds. My mother canned food for the winter. There was no ambulance if there was a medical emergency - go in the car (with no air conditioning) to the doctor or hospital. Live in a house with no air conditioning, no one had that, and no one had a phone. That was a time of John Galt living. You did it yourself or it didn't happen. Families took care of their elderly parents. Churches helped the poor. In those days, there were "poor farms" where poor people could go and live and tend gardens to eat.
Now, government, federal and local, is in our lives daily. I often think we had it better in the old days. We were independent, didn't have to lock our doors or cars as crime was extremely low. Now, we have terrorist bombings and killings and I can't see that stopping.
