Re: Obamacare

DA--If I may ask, what state do you live in? One of the ones that didn't take federal money to expand medicare? Because I know that's screwing over a lot of people--in states that did take the money, any single person making under roughly $15,000 per year qualifies for medicare, with adjustments for household size, kids, stuff like that. In states that didn't take the money, a lot of people are fucked, mainly because the people who bashed out the ACA didn't anticipate a bunch of states refusing to expand medicare for political reasons. I really hope you manage to figure something out--I know this isn't a practical solution for most people poor enough to be affected by it, but I'm kinda hoping people who would qualify for assistance if they moved to another state start doing that.

According to a couple of sources I've seen now, "The Department of Health and Human Services issued a final rule in August exempting people from penalties for not having insurance if they would have qualified for Medicaid coverage had their state chosen to expand the program." But I don't know whether the law says anything about people living in states that did expand Medicaid, whose income falls below the qualification line, but who for some other reason still don't qualify (I know in my state, they can get you for weird stuff like owning funeral plots, which are regarded as assets.)
