Medicaid Wouldn't cover an emergency operation my pops had when he collapsed and was rushed to the hospital. Now he owes $150,000 and he is 60 years old. If they go after our house we would be homeless. So yes it would be nice not to have to pay so much. It would be nice if he was taken care of and was able to walk away with out the headache over his head. But on the otherhand if I heard this story and it was a person I didn't know or give a crap about I would think why should I have to pay such high taxes so this guy can get a free ride? Its easy to say that until it hits home. This country gives Billions to Africa to fight AIDS but cant throw a hard working American Citizen a break so he can retire to a crappy social security in a year and a half in peace. So yes we need reform.But at whet cost?
