State of Missouri plans on elliminating all MEdicare/medicade, and . . . by 2008

[tracysaboe]

other federal health mandates in it's state by 2008!

Here's a very leftist article about it, that we should all post comments about and reply too.

If MO is trying to do this, certainly NH should be able to do this.

We could even do it faster, because I think per capital and wealth we have less medicare and medicade recipiants.

Honestly, even though half of it IS paid by the Fed and the other have IS paid by the State, I think giving people half their money back, and letting medicine be more free market would STILL be better for everybody. Because all the beurocracy associated with Medicare and Medicade I think doubles the price. Give people half of there money back, and abolish Medicare and Medicade and I we'd certainly break even -- and that's before competition drives down prices even more.

Eventually NH will be able to Nullify the Federal Income Tax so we can get the other half back. But untill then, we should follow the example of MO.

With UTah and other states completely opting out of Federal funds so they don't need to follow no child left behind. It really could be a very short time before we see NH not accepting any federal funds.
