We all knew it was coming. If you’re on the ACA Medicaid extension or Medicaid in general be prepared to have mandatory work hours to get access to a fundamental human right all so rich people can make a few extra bucks.

    Just gonna throw this out there, it’s a shitty job market right now, and it’s only going to get worse. Having a job isn’t always possible when you are physically and mentally willing to accept work of any kind.

    For anyone effected, republicans aren’t great at fine print, you might actually be able to meet the requirements with a volunteer job.

    And for all you so called Christians out there, this is where your church should step up and “employ” people so they can get basic healthcare.

      I pay taxes so the government that is supposed to care for my fellow citizens and I, can provide at least temporary insurance for losing a job and as necessary for healthcare.
