Rove on Medicaid: If We Can’t Win the Battle on Checking if Ineligible People Are Getting Money, We Can’t Win on Other Issues

RUSH EXCERPT:
ROVE: "I agree but for example we ought to be talk about empowering the consumer, the patient if you will by allowing people to put into health saving accounts to augment what they get under Medicaid. We were absolutely right. Think about it. Medicaid is designed for the vulnerable among us. His design for port seniors, children in poor families and the disabled. We are paying 90% were able-bodied people under Medicaid they could coverage cov Obama under Medicaid were paying 50% or 70% depending on the category for the ones were really truly vulnerable. If we cannot win the battle you’ve got to work if you want to be on Medicaid if you are able-bodied. We are not going to have illegals on it we are going to let the states a check as frequently as they want to see if in eligible blood being carried on their roles and getting money as a result. If we cannot win that battle we cannot win the battle and the other issues."
