Opinion | I assumed I’d never need Medicaid. I was wrong. As a student with cancer, I needed help. Cuts to the program will make life harder for others like me.

"I never expected to go on Medicaid. I grew up in a comfortable household, had worked since high school, and was a generally healthy 24y/o public policy graduate student.

I also never expected the stubborn lump above my collarbone would be Hodgkin’s lymphoma."

This should not controversial, but somehow it is.

I believe EVERYONE deserves healthcare, no matter who you are, what you do, or where you were born.

Dr Oz says being healthy is a patriotic duty

Worse, he says they spend 70% of Medicare & Medicaid funds on chronic illness & aren’t “getting their money’s worth”

This is the quiet part said out loud.

They don’t want to cure chronic illness, they want us to take the blame. They don’t want to pay.

RFK Jr. asks CDC for new measles treatment guidance amid his unfounded claims Kennedy claimed that drugs like budesonide and clarithromycin "have been shown very effective" for measles, but doctors say they don't fight the infection itself.

‘Kennedy told reporters that there were "many, many good ways to treat measles and doctors need to know that and to know those methods.’

One problem; there is no treatment for measles. Signed, a doctor who’s been forced to deal with measles because of this stupid fraud.

The Medicaid cuts the GOP is about to try and shove through would have horrific results.
