MEDICAID: Violates the Constitution

| August 7, 2019 1:00 AM

Wow! Mentioned in the same paragraph with Brent Regan. What a privilege. Brent is one of the finest people I know, and when he takes a stand and works against Medicaid he is thinking of you, dear reader, because you are the one who will have to pay for this new extravaganza. Remember, there is no such thing as a free lunch.

Maybe what Mr. Regan did not mention is that it is not so much the out-of-state money that put over the deal, but the fact that from kindergarten to the end of college, these young minds have been taught that socialism is better than capitalism.

Often people in socialist countries end up starving: e.g. Venezuela.

Medicaid is not mentioned anywhere in the Constitution. For a perfect example of why that is so read the short essay by Davy Crockett “Not Yours To Give.”

Read the Declaration of Independence and see why our government was instituted: “Life, liberty, Pursuit of Happiness: That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men,”

Government was not instituted to give us anything but to protect our liberty. For a free copy of the Constitution, send a self-addressed stamped envelope to: Jim Hollingsworth, 1203 W. Orchard Ave., Hayden, ID 83835. Find out for yourself why Medicaid is not constitutional.
