Your a peach cj. Lets take a 1/6th of the US economy and change it. How are we changing it you ask ? Dont worry about it... After we pass it then you can see whats in it. Thats not a dirty trick.... dont worry about it.
You just don't quit do you? The contents of the bill have been known since passage in the senate months ago. If anyone has not read it, at least in summary form, then that's their fault. What has not been full known is the content of the reconciliation amendment...but even that's a misnomer. The recon amendment was on the web for 72 hours, as promised by the Dems, before it even came up in the senate for debate...and then the reps started trying to "amend" it once more, not really in any effort to make substantive changes (ex: the viagra to sex offenders amendment) but really to force it back to the house, in their constant delay and obstruct tactic.
It's really hard to have a substantive debate with folks who need to exaggerate and distort as part of the routine.
All the special deals are still in the bill and I placed everything right in front of your empty lobes and you still cant admit they are there.
That's not true.
Sec. 1201. Federal funding for States. Strikes the provision for a permanent 100% federal matching rate for Nebraska for the Medicaid costs of newly eligible individuals. Provides federal Medicaid matching payments for the costs of services to newly eligible individuals at the following rates in all states except expansion states: 100% in 2014, 2015, and 2016; 95% in 2017; 94% in 2018; 93% in 2019; and 90% thereafter. In the case of expansion states, reduces the state share of the costs of covering nonpregnant childless adults by 50% in 2014, 60% in 2015, 70% in 2016, 80% in 2017, 90% in 2018. In 2019 and thereafter, expansion states would bear the same state share of the costs of covering nonpregnant childless adults as non-expansion states (e.g., 7% in 2019, 10% thereafter).
