Subject: Re: The Republican Health Care System
There are a lot of people who benefit from Medicaid who are not physically disabled, but lack the ability to regularly work. For example, if you head down to your local homeless shelter, you will find a non-trivial number of people who could not go out and get employed even if they wanted to. They lack suitable clothing, they lack suitable hygiene, they lack transportation, they lack a home address for paperwork, they lack any kind of job history. They may be presently addicted to substances that make them utterly unsuitable for work. They may have physical or mental issues that do not rise to the level of disability (or which they can't afford to have diagnosed by a medical professional as constituting a disability), but which make them unsuitable for work. Etc. Plenty of other people who suffer from the same lack of social or physical capital (especially in rural areas) who are simply not capable of getting to a job and performing it regularly.
For some of the MAGA their answer to these problems is 'let them die'. They see these people as failures who contribute nothing to society.
Others, like Dope, are just clueless or choose to be blissfully ignorant.
