FOX: "Kentucky to add Medicaid work requirement; first state to follow Trump plan"

"Under the new rule, adults age 19 to 64 must complete 80 hours of "community engagement" per month to keep their care. That includes working a job, going to school, taking a job-training course or volunteering."

LOL

Oh the humanity!

And?

>job-training course
how does this work with no jobs?

Social program spending makes military budget look like peanuts. I wonder which generation will have to bite the bullet. The founders are turning over in their graves.

It's not supposed to.

Yeah its total softball and fair as can be but liberals hoop and hollar anyways

Blacks are fffffuuuuuucccckkkkkkeedddddd

Ain't that many in KY and hopefully be a lot less.

SHILLS in full force!!! Russian collusion is over!!

So feeding the elderly or homeless, mentoring, tutoring/after school supervision, coaching, ANY help to the community. How is this a bad thing?

>community engagement
There's nothing wrong with that. Getting out there and being seen doing good things might allow people to make the connections they need to move forward in life. Sitting isolated on welfare with no interactions with your neighbors seems worse than feeding puppies at the shelter.
She's engaging the community so I approve.

Our rural blacks are contributing citizens. The tweakers are a bigger problem.
No idea what the blacks are like around Frankfurt/Louisville/Lexington though.

About 8 percent of the population are black

Anything that isn’t free gibs with no strings attached is literally fascism.

Uhm Trump fixed the economy in one year don't you know? All the coal jobs are back baby!

Fuckin facts!!

Kentucky medicaid by race:
White 77%
Black 12%

"African-American unemployment hit record low in December"

"The unemployment rate for African-Americans fell to 6.8 percent in December, the lowest level since the government began tracking such data in 1972."

foxnews.com/us/2018/01/05/african-american-unemployment-hit-record-low-in-december.html

Point is, there are tons of Trump voters out there who took his promise of health care for all and ran with it.

77% of medicaid enrollees in Kentucky are white.

62.5% of Kentuckians (?) voted Trump.

So some will get screwed by this. No healthcare util they find a job, so they'll be taking any gig they get. McDees or die.

>behind every meme flag
>a leaf!

The opposite of that is true, the mil budget to the social welfare budget (discounting the zombie sustenance program called medicare) is incomparably large

It literally says community engagement like volunteering. It’s not about just having a job. Why are 99% of you faggots on here completely illiterate?

Mcdees has tendies.

"Completely illiterate"? Says the canuck with free health care. Move to Kentucky and I might give some weight to your drivel.

This is before the new medicaid proposals! Lol, fuckin idiots deserve what they get.

"This includes Kathy Oller, an Obamacare enrollment worker who supported Trump in the 2016 election. She feels let down by the Republican health care plan — “If they take the expanded Medicaid away, it really, really is gonna kill Kentuckians because they won’t have health insurance,” she says — and she’s already seeing other ways that Trump health policies are hurting Kentucky. Obamacare sign-ups, she said, were slower this year, as people in Kentucky were confused about whether the health care law still existed."

>Point is, there are tons of Trump voters out there who took his promise of health care for all and ran with it.

All I heard during the campaign was repeal Obamacare. Towards the end it became repeal and replace and I was a bit more agitated. So this is a step in the right direction at least.

what about full-time students?

"Under the [Republican] AHCA, analysts estimate Hoskins’s premium would rise 24 percent as insurers would be able to charge someone his age a higher amount. His subsidy, meanwhile, would drop from $700 each month to $333.

Those two changes alone would more than triple his out-of-pocket premium, from $232 each month under Obamacare to $822 each month under the Republican plan.

“It’s going to at least take half, if not all, of my Social Security,” Hoskins says. “If I had to pay the full amount, that would not be good. That would put you back in poverty.”

Thanks Trump!

Wal mart workers on food stamps

Work requirement for medicaid

I love how Republicans have turned welfare into a corporate subsidy that reduces wages.

Not beeelack. "Not that there's anything wrong with that." Anyway enjoy your healthcare, or lack thereof. LOL

So true, the almighty dollar on the backs on the ignorant poor.

You live in Canada, you retard.

One step closer to a national service program!

If we can make receiving welfare dependent on either employed status or volunteer work, it's a foot in the door to eventually adding other federal benefits to that list, and from there it could go even further.

>Service guarantees citizenship. Would you like to know more?

Nice meme flag Obama leaf

Fun fact: following Trump's election, immigration to Canada went up 7%.

>It's all those Syrian refugees!
Actually, the acceptance of new people with "Refugee" status went down 25%.

these guys get it. OP is on his way to page 11

Fun fact: show me multiple sources on that. Our government has a national quota to meet with refugee intake annually.

Well we try to get rid of welfare but thats a no-no so I guess you should be happy with what you have

"For instance, America's "poorest white town" -- Beattyville, Kentucky -- voted overwhelmingly for Trump. Any cuts to the safety net would be felt acutely by its residents: 57% of households in Beattyville receive food stamps and 58% get disability payments from the government."

money.cnn.com/2017/05/24/news/economy/donald-trump-voters-budget-cuts/index.html

What about them?

Yeah, and here's the official CIC immigration quotas for 2017.

>MORE SOURCES
Get fucked lad. Me wasting my time isn't going to send those Americans back home. Not my fault you don't know anything about your own country.

>The law does not apply to:

>Pregnant women
>Full-time students
>Former foster care youth
>Primary caregivers of children, the elderly, & full-time students

what the fuck
at this point, it's just meaningless virtue signaling

>rule out everyone but the neets who post here
>leftards still screeching
kek

Maybe those people don't want handouts, but want an opportunity to work and make their own riches?
Maybe they were just looking for someone to put a stop to the endless unskilled immigration and delocalizations?

that's the thing, this seems nice, but huets the GOP in the minds of moderates, emboldens and gives creedence to liberals, establishes a precedent of all the people exempt, yet doesnt actually solve the problem, or even really help it.
welfare already is generally pretty nonexistent for decent white men. welfare queens are black women with at least one kid. (and it actually encourages blacks to have kids/have more kids, to keep the gravy train rolling.) and a few others that claim some type of "disability." this doesn't solve the problem, but makes arguing against welfare harder.

my only hope is that it's a step towards a better solution.

*hurts

In Kentucky, African-Americans are 7.8 percent of the population and 13.3 percent of poor people, but are responsible for 27 percent of homicide, 13 percent of rape, 44 percent of robbery, 28 percent of aggravated assault, and 19.3 percent of burglary.

Can't do math eh? Black pop in Kentucky is around 8-9%. White is around 88-89%. Sorry, you are wrong meme flag.

Any help?!

I've been a NEET my entire life, my family survived off government checks for disability, non even worked a job for least over 10 years. About everyone I've known is a NEET, white nigger who don't work, or also get a check.

I wanna get a job but I feel stupid, and worry I will make a mistake, I have bad social anxiety and I'm basically just totally incompetent. How do I break myself from this? I truly want a job, but don't even know the first steps to getting one. And yes I'm a dropout.

>discounting Medicare
You don't get to do that.

How can leftists see anything wrong with this, unless they unironically support gibsmedat?

Oy vey goyim, increase military spending, we're not even close to achieving greater israel.

Because if communists could read, they wouldn’t be communists

Watch the nigs flee this state. I'm moving to Kentucky.

lmao, you read this wrong. This is the TARGET immigration numbers. You're proving canada user right about what he said regarding quotas.

lol, you thank anyone under 40 is going to get a cent of social security?

Cannot unsee the photoshop.

>former foster care youth
>people "battling" drug addiction

So this rule does nothing. And you get a choice, work 80 hours a month or start doing drugs. Which one do you think people will choose?

reminder that the last time we went isolationist unemployment was at 40% and Hitler occupied half of Europe

Whoaaa you mean if it costs way more to keep you alive you have to pay more? Does this old asshole realize that he used to not be paying as much because 30-45 year olds with families were paying 4 times what they should've been paying?

...

why is healthcare such a big deal in america? are all of you sick all the fucking time or what? why subsidize genelets so they can live 40 years in obesity and a constant running nose before they keel over`? this is the power of socialism its dysgenics

Literally everything in America is political.

Rich bitch from Poverty Island

We spend over half the federal budget on gibs, like 15% on defense. Kill yourself

>Wow, Trump voters are so stupid, they don't just automatically vote for whatever will give them the greatest immediate financial reward?!?
