I said.... Let's just pass a law that says they can't get medical care under *any* circumstances. Should be easy with our current state legislature and governor. Let's strike while the iron is hot!!! After all, they are poor, so it's unlikely they will have the political clout to do anything about it. If we keep trying, maybe we can just run all poor people out of the state. And even if they do keep ER privileges it takes 'em 10-12 hours to get in, get treated and get out. Maybe they will just get tired of our Christian attitude and move out of state.

It's already almost impossible to find a doctor who will accept Medicaid. This will only ensure that more people go to the ER for treatment since they cannot, by law, be turned away, which will in turn result in even higher medical bills for the state, Yep, makes a lot of sense.
