Well, Floridians wouldnt need medicaid if so many families werent out of work! The thought that our state would use Enterprise Florida and BRIBE corporations to employ us, only to have those companies DUMP employees after taking state money.
So, how about doing small business tax breaks, and telling corporate America, too anemic to weather bad years like small business, please leave and let someone else employ Floridians.
I am sure there are enough people who arent begging for a Walmart job.
Maybe the state has no one to blame for unemployed Floridians but their State Congress.

So rather than legislate and tax appropriately the state of Florida once again reverts to their favorite special interest solution… cost shifting of healthcare.

Last I read, the federal government was covering the additional patients approved for Medicaide. Do you have any clue how poor people on Medicaid are? Last time they implemented this idea, the medical providers had to eat the charge.
