Introduced by Rep. Rebekah Warren (D) on March 15, 2007, to urge the United States Congress to reauthorize the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) for the State of Michigan. Note: This has become a controversial issue because the Medicaid add-on program intended to provide health coverage to the children of the "working poor" is increasingly being used to pay health expenses of adults who are above the poverty line, and the proposed renewal would potentially greatly expand such practices.
- Referred to the House Health Policy Committee on March 15, 2007.
Passed in the House by voice vote on April 26, 2007.

i have a job. in fact, i provide jobs. and it's very easy being a conservative. it's even easier being a libertarian. elections DO have results. look at all the bad legislation we face here today. the will of the majority can also be looked at as MOB RULE.

with MOB RULE we get such things as LOOTING. (the taking of assets and cash from businesses without the owner's consent. some business owners consider being taxed BILLIONS unfairly to be a form of looting.)

and PILLAGING, (the taking of personal property and assets to be re-distributed to those that don't deserve them or didn't work for them.)

and LYNCHING, (the natural tendency of the MOB to vent frustrations on the leader of the government (see saddam) or the leader of the mob (see mussolini) depending on how well or poorly the looting and pillaging is going.

now, as we've seen here many times before, the will of the mob is not always whats best for michigan, but it IS always whats best for the MOB.

It's a lot easier being a conservative when you have a job.

S-chip was passed and signed into law. Elections have results. They are a demonstration of the will of the majority.

It's not a right.

[quote user="jmangan"]There is something very misguided about denying it to people because of their financial status.[/quote]

So you opt to be lazy and I opt to work hard so I should support you? Not.Most

folks "financial status" is what they chose to do with their lives, ain't my problem, never was and never will be.

So because I want to keep what I earn I am selfish? You are delusional. Quit giving away my stuff.
