Agriculture secretary says there will be 'no amnesty' for migrants, adults on Medicaid can replace them in workforce

[Crepitus]

As noted by the link I just posted you lie. 36% of Medicaid recipients do not work at all. Only 44% work full time. That is according to the Federal Government.

Dims always lie.

How many of those 36% are in nursing homes and such?

 

[WelfareQueen]

“,,, because I say so”

Not a defendable argument, little lady.

Dim rule number 1. When the facts don't fit the narrative just make shit up.

 

[Zincwarrior]

How many of those 36% are in nursing homes and such?

I am sure the TV news will show us ad nauseum.

 

[Orangecat]

And most of these folk on Medicaid who can work already do.

"Most" isn't good enough.

 

[Orangecat]

As previously noted, those folks by and large do not exist.

By and large?
They either exist or they don't. Your weasel words aren't fooling anyone, kid.

No, son. Because they don't.

And how many millions are lazy layabouts? See how that works? The Law doesn't kick Grandma out of a Nursing Home. You know this but choose to lie.

It does force abled-bodied people to at least attempt to look for work. Only a fool or a Dim would object to this.

The People Policy Project?


"The People's Policy Project (3P) is a left-leaning or socialist-leaning think tank. It was founded by Matt Bruenig and focuses on analyzing politics and producing socialist and social democratic policy proposals tailored to the United States context. 3P has been described as a competitor to The Guardian, which is also left-leaning. They have criticized the Democratic party for certain appointments and advocated for others, demonstrating their political stance. "

No, son. Because they don't.

Typical off- topic blather, little lady.

No no they think buses are going to pull up to nursing homes to pick up the elderly to pick in the fields

 

[struth]

There's only 2 in the OP.

Maybe a national program on counting to 10 should be the topic of the next cabinet meeting?

After they vote on weather to use gold leaf or paint on the corners of course.

Third paragraph, sorry I confused you

Sorry, little lady, but you failed to acknowledge that your link is, predictably, a leftist Clown Show.

From the "sbout" section of your linked blog, "Unlike most think tanks, which are financed by large corporations and foundations, 3P is funded by small donors pledging $5 to $15 per month on the Patreon and ActBlue platforms.

Yeah. You linked to "ActBlue" groupies.

Super!

 

[Paradoxical#1]

They won't be picking crops like the ag sec wants.

That's the whole point of the OP, how did you miss that?

I don't read links without an excerpt.

But you know what the absolute genius of this new 80 hour a month rule for deadbeat gangbanger criminal illegal aliens is?

It gets illegals off Medicaid. Why? Because the illegals (and there are many) who don't work and engage in stealing, drugs, loafing, murder, carjackings, thuggery off Medicaid because they can't now go to a top notch first rate hospital and get Cadillac medical treatments and free dental and vision unless they work, and they don'ty work. Those law-abiding illegals who have a steady job can still get Medicaid.

[Independent thinker]

So there are a couple of problems here.

They have never really told us what "able bodies" is in their point of view.

And most of these folk on Medicaid who can work already do.

Not surprising that you would back illegals and able bodied people who don't want to work.

 

[Doc7505]

i doubt that many working on medicaid can do field work....many able bodied workers wont last doing that,,,field work is something you have to be born into,hence why they have migrant workers who go to different areas when the crops are ready....these people have been doing this their whole lives,medicaid people?....nope....

~~~~~~
Blowing smoke again.. I was born in Brooklyn NY, and worked on farms in Kentucky, suckering, chopping Tobacco stalks and housing tobacco. I've also run a combine 10 hours a day to harvest wheat in Montana.
Beside the above I have also worked in construction.
Yet, that has not been my life's goals. They were jobs that were done as a temporary thing.

No, Son It's on topic completely blows the tRumpling narrative outta the water.

Third paragraph, sorry I confused you

There are only 3 lines in the OP.
