My post said nothing about supporting or opposing Medicaid. and I don’t care that you oppose it. You manage to partake of it and have for years, per your posts.
Pointing out that may in the Yeshiva World is NOT Anti-Semitic, it points out that all Americans can avail themselves of these social programs if qualified to do so.
I completely disagree with you opinion that all of the social programs I named (and I apologize for the typo in Social) were created to appease someone. I do not believe that to be the case with Social Security, Medicare or Section 8 (of the Housing Act of 1937). Section 8 and Social Security were New Deal programs to help pull the country out of the Great Depression, not appease anyone, Medicare, part of Johnson’s Great Society plan recognized that most American received their healthcare insurance from their employers and there needed to be a mechanism in place to allow retiring workers to BUY hospitalization coverage. I don’t think it was appeasing the elderly.
