  Florida is becoming a Mecca for the right. They think it's the way America should be.
context: Florida is one of them. Childless adults in the Sunshine State can’t get Medicaid unless they fall into a special eligibility category, like having a disability. And even adults with kids have a hard time getting onto the program because the standard income guidelines are so low ― about 30% of the poverty line, which last year worked out to less than $7,000 for a family of three. That’s not enough to cover rent, food and other essentials, let alone buy a health insurance policy.
  
  I knew it was bad but not that bad. Holy fuck. >
  
  Florida is one of 11 states that refuse to expand Medicaid for the working poor (Obamacare).  Yup - all of those people vote against their own self interest.  Fucking morons
