The Whopper-chopper Governor says $5,000 a year is too much

[Guns Guns Guns]

​

The Christie administration released a long-anticipated outline today of how the state proposes to drastically restructure New Jersey’s Medicaid program and cut more than $300 million.


The Department of Human Services expects to save as much as $32.5 million by sharply limiting who is eligible for coverage.


Parents in a family of three earning more than $422 a month, or $5,000 a year, would be disqualified for earning too much money, according to a document summarizing the proposal.


Currently the income cut-off is $24,600 for a family of three.

Truly, Right Wing Conservative concern for the least among us in these United States is overwhelming.

But hey...as long as fatboy has gas to get his chopper to his kids ballgames, then screw the poor.

Yes, lets keep spending money that states no longer have.

"About 1 million of New Jersey’s nearly 9 million residents are enrolled in Medicaid or NJ FamilyCare. Even with the proposed cuts, the state will spend almost $5 billion to fund the programs in 2012. The federal government chips in about an equal amount."

New Jersey's pension and retirement health systems are both underfunded by tens of billions of dollars., Gov. Christie has tried to get the state's public workers to chip in more. but so far they have balked at any minimal increase.

$5,000 a year. That's disgusting!

How can anyone vote for an individual who uses a helicopter for personal "business" and then wants to cut people off medical care who earn over $5,000/yr? How barbaric can people be?

Is Obama cutting people off medical or trying to ensure everyone is eligible? If you look real hard you'll see the difference between Repubs and Dems.

You still don't get it. I'll give it one more shot. It's not OK for anyone to do it while at the same time talking about implementing a $5,000/yr cut off for a program for the poor.

You're three times the size of Christie. Hauling your fat ass onto that helicopter would be nigh on impossible.

Think of what your lard ass is costing your family budget not only in food, but in hauling that said lard ass around in your automobile. Are you one of those fat guys behind the wheel that looks like he's sitting in the back seat, sweating profusely, one hand on the wheel and the other shoving a third Big Mac in your face while the secret sauce runs down your chin(s)?

Was that "zap the whiner", who whines about fat jokes and fat names, calling another man, who is half his size, "fatboy"?

Talk about your irony~

Yeah, Obama wants to sound like a good guy-while accomplishing diddly squat...meanwhile millions of people languish in poverty cuz our idiot president is inept at creating policy that actually helps our economy...btw Christie reimbursed the state for his copter use...as should be. Meanwhile Oblama is out campaigning on the tax dollar while the economy continues to slide...Oh and his wife is campaigning on the tax dollar too... Yeah, apple, I see the difference all right!

Obama wasn't president yet when they had the Chicago date so what makes you think taxpayers paid for it?
