My son is disabled and relies on Medicaid for his health care.
I remember that from TMF.
My MIL also relies on Medicaid (and Medicare) for her medical needs. She is blind, had to have hearing aids as of about 2 years ago, and has kidney cancer**.
Her knees also aren't great (one of them has persistent swelling).
However, if you really want to get the budget under control without a tax increase, you have to slash SS, Medicare, and Medicaid. They are the lion's share of the budget.
I favor the tax increase, at least to the levels when Reagan left office in 1988.
**They aren't operating because it is so slow growing that they think she will expire from natural causes before it will become a problem.
