FL purging Medicaid rolls of poor women

(R) FL Gov Rick Scott has been systematically purging 100% disabled adults 18-64 from Medicaid for the past year!!!

On September 1, he purged over 3000--50% were women --the avg cost per year for medical care is $100,000

Do the math:

3000 x $100k p/yr = $300,000,000 = a lot of sick and slowly dying people

The way to win President Obama is to focus on health care of the poor and disabled who are being purged...all these adults are VOTERS! IF YOU DONT HELP THEM THEY WONT VOTE.....

QUESTION EVERYBODY:
HOW MANY DISABLED ADULTS DO YOU KNOW IN YOUR STATE AND HOW MUCH OF THEIR MEDICAID HAS BEEN CUT!!!

As a patient advocate who routinely works with Medicaid and Medicare, I have heard nothing of this. Granted I am in Maryland but we all talk nationwide.

and also projecting into future if Romney gets in. So no, not really a troll.

But I pretty well keep up on the news and what the crooks in Tally are up to. Haven't heard a thing about this. Appears to be disinformation.
