I tell you what, if any of the articles I'm reading are true the American people have been had. The majority anyway. "The American Health Care Act that some are referring to as “Trumpcare” would gradually scale back federal dollars for Medicaid, known as Medi-Cal in California, and eliminate funding for the program’s expansion under Obamacare that allowed low-income adults without children to qualify for coverage.

In total, Jones said California could face a $20 billion cut in federal health care dollars.

What I don't understand is why we have to make the Medicare cuts. Can't we take that money from the military expansion since we already have the biggest, baddest, military in the world anyway? Or even better the useless southern wall.
It all makes perfect sense. The Republicans have always been dedicated to removing/ repealing any programs that will actually help the less fortunate in our society. The Republicans basically believe if you have not suceeded in America it is because you are lazy and unwilling to work hard. And I do think they recognize that a very few actually deserving people may have to suffer for the greater good of creating a better reich but that is just the price that has to be paid to create the master race utopia.
We have to make the medicaid cuts in order to make the tax cuts for the wealthy who have been suffering unnecessarily under Obama.
