ThinkProgress.org: If Republicans get their way, poor people better hope they never get sick again

Medicaid had a good run, while it lasted.

In 2012, shortly after Republican candidate Mitt Romney selected now-Speaker Paul Ryan as his running mate, a Democratic super PAC convened a focus group to explore whether Romney's support for Ryan's budget proposals could be a liability for the presidential candidate. The Ryan Budget, which combines deep cuts to programs like Medicaid and food stamps, big tax breaks for the rich, and Ryan's signature proposal to repeal Medicare and food stamps, big tax breaks for the rich, and Ryan’s signature proposal to repeal Medicare and replace it with a voucher, seemed likely to be unpopular with wide swaths of the electorate.
