Also, you denigrated the Medicaid coverage you had. So, you want others to pay for your healthcare, but you're going to complain about the mechanism that was used to pay for it? And out of curiosity, how does a non-disabled adult female without a child even qualify for Medicaid?
I'm poor as all hell (relatively) and I'm fairly certain I wouldn't qualify. Although, I guess part of the reason I'm poor IS my monthly health insurance payment.
A, I don't need to know if this is all personal - was just curious how it works.
