medicaid for the middle class? If only someone had told them to read the bill first. How did this happen?

I wonder if Queen Nancy is hearing her own words echoing in her head right now "we have to pass the bill so you can see what is in it"
It is what happens when you have 2700 pages of crap that should be covered in like twenty, if it were written in plain English instead of Legalese.

Pelosi said they had to pass the bill to find out what was in it...that must be why O'bamacare has stolen $500 billion from medicare/medicaid for the past 2 years...

My god, it's the first bill in history to have unforeseen loopholes to be ironed out! Why, oh why did they not read a bill which magically materialized in their possession without anybody who had written it to explain what the contents were?

I'll be honest:
The middle-class, particularly those who are nearing retirement age (i.e., Baby Boomers), are a crucial voting bloc.
Think about why Kathy Hochul, a Democrat, won in the most conservative district in New York State.
If more people get on Medicaid and Medicare, then us liberals win every election.
The fact of the matter is, people who get on government insurance programs don't ever want to return to the chaos of private health insurance.
Moreover, those that are middle-aged aren't likely to get new or better jobs due to age discrimination. Much less jobs with health benefits.
