Those getting kicked off Medicaid are being directed to ACA Marketplace. In CA, we have Covered CA. Income qualification for CA Medicaid is <$39,900/family of 4. Minimum plan requires out of pocket spending of $18,200/family before much of anything is covered. WTF. 😳

@bern_identity I have so many issues with Medicaid, and how it perpetuates poverty. Under Clinton, they made asset seizure after death of Medicaid recipients, so even if I were to qualify, I would not use it. We really need to change this, if we are not going to have single payer.
@bern_identity I wonder if Medicaid was allowed for just covid related stuff or was everyone eligible even in states did not allow Medicaid expansion prior to today.
@bern_identity That’s what you get under the rule of the duopoly of corporate greed! Democracy? Really?
@bern_identity It’s gobsmacking to me that someone on disability in your country doesn’t qualify for healthcare coverage. Healthcare should be universal.
