>OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Despite bitter resistance in OK for years to President Obama's health care overhaul, Republican leaders in this conservative state are now confronting something that alarms them even more: a huge $1.3B hole in the budget that threatens to do widespread damage to the state's health care system.
>So, in what would be the grandest about-face among rightward leaning states, OK is now moving toward a plan to expand its Medicaid program to bring in billions of federal dollars from Obama's new health care system. What's more, GOP leaders are considering a tax hike to cover the state's cost share.
>"We're to the point where the provider rates are going to be cut so much that providers won't be able to survive, particularly the nursing homes," said Republican state Rep. Doug Cox, referring to possible cuts in state funds for indigent care that could cause some hospitals and nursing homes to close.
>Despite furious opposition by conservative groups, (R) Gov. Mary Fallin and some GOP legislative leaders are pushing the plan, and support appears to be growing in the overwhelmingly Republican Legislature. Details have not been ironed out but the proposal is based on an Indiana program that received federal approval.
>Obama called on states to expand their Medicaid insurance for low-income residents as part of his 2014 health overhaul designed to shrink the population of uninsured Americans. Most Democratic-led states did so, along with a handful of GOP states. But in OK, even with 20% of its population on Medicaid, it's been no way, no how.
>Until now.
>A bust in the oil patch has decimated state revenues, compounded by years of income tax cuts and growing corporate subsidies intended to make the state more business-friendly. OK's Medicaid agency warned doctors and other health care providers of cuts of up to 25% in what the state pays under Medicaid.

>Under the proposal, which would be funded in part with a $1.50-per-pack tax on cigarettes, Oklahoma would shift 175,000 people from its Medicaid rolls onto the federal health exchange created by the Affordable Care Act. That would make room for adding to Medicaid roughly the same number of working poor who are currently uninsured. Participants would pay nominal premiums and co-pays.
>The move, by increasing the number of uninsured people covered, would allow the state to tap into the extra money offered under the federal law. Beginning in 2017, the federal government would cover 95 percent of the state's Medicaid costs, decreasing to 90 percent of the share in 2020.
>Fallin, a former congresswoman who voted against Obama's health plan when it came before the House, argues that the plan doesn't amount to expanding Medicaid because the program's rolls don't grow. Rather, she said, it "transitions 175,000 Medicaid enrollees to the private insurance market."
>No matter what state leaders call it, conservative groups aren't happy about the idea of more government health spending. "They can call it Medicaid rebalancing, but there's only one federal program that offers a 9-to-1 federal match, and that's Obamacare," said Johnathan Small, president of Oklahoma Council on Public Affairs, a free-market think-tank that opposes higher taxes. The opponents have called for covering health costs by cutting spending for less essential programs.
>Americans for Prosperity, another conservative think-tank backed by the billionaire philanthropist Koch brothers, David and Charles, also has launched a campaign against the proposal and is hosting a "NobamaCare" event at the state Capitol to voice their opposition.
IT'S OVER. When even OKLAHOMA is forced to accept federal funding for health care, Conservative have well and truly lost.

Used to watch this show everyday with Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert, and now it's just 2 unfunny black guys making terrible anti-trump cheap-shot jokes. Comedy Central Ruined by SJWs.
>>74237324
Are you trying to say Jon (((Leibowitz))) and Colbert were any better? Because they weren't.
Newsflash: if those two were still doing shows on CC, they'd be the same unfunny guys making terrible anti-Trump cheap-shot jokes.

At least they were kinda funny and didn't think every little thing was racist. They went at Trump too, but weren't as cringey about it. Just on tv: "REPORTS CAME OUT TRUMP SAID HIS DAUGHTER WAS HOT WHEN SHE WAS 16, HE LITERALLY WANTED TO BANG A 16 YEAR OLD LMAO" and then went on to say 85% of mexicans hate trump.

Why the fuck are we so worried about trans people? Why the fuck does our society encourage this mental health issue?
We went to the moon in this country, and then to fucking Mars. Can't we find something better to fucking do? like build a space elevator for instance?
I've never seen a trans, and I would not hate them. Regardless, due to my childhood upbringing, I may feel uncomfortable!
