Medicare kicked Grandma out of the hospital after four days, she got 20 at the 'swing bed' -- a cross between a hospital and a nursing home -- and would have gotten 34 at the nursing home. For those keeping score, that is 58 days -- pay your taxes, stay off welfare, do charity work to keep others off welfare, and the government rewards you with 58 days. Grandma died before her 58 days were up -- saving the American taxpayer a couple of grand. You're Welcome.
And where is that couple of grand going? College tuition for unwed mothers.
Yes, a woman has sex and makes the mistakes of not using effective birth control and choosing a partner who does not want to be a daddy, and the mother is rewarded with college tuition. Who thought that was a good idea? Who's responsible!?!
Barack Obama, http://scholarshipsforwomenx.com/scholarships-for-single-moms-gives-free-money-to-women/ , who will soon be getting an e-mail from me.
I am a BIG supporter of the poor -- and support Obamacare, by the way. But I also feel that there are no -- or should not be -- FREE lunches. These grants need to be tied to a community service -- nothing hard, an hour per week of sweeping streets, for example. Anything to contribute to the society that is contributing to her.
Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.
I also realize that there are other examples of a waste of taxpayer's money out there -- John McCain's $23,000 Social Security slurp, Michele Bachmann's slurp of $250,000 in government subsidies for her family farm. And they will be getting e-mails, too.
There is only so much taxpayer money to go around. If only Grandma had of had more intense treatment from Medicare....
