Only off by a billion dollars, nice job. Who else among you is this qualified to hold office? Please submit your resignation by the end of the day.
More government welfare costs going up up up. Whoulda thunk it?!
For those interested, here is some info to put this in perspective. https://www.in.gov/sba/files/December-2022-Medicaid-Forecast-Final-12152022.pdf
So i did hit the link above. 2.27 million people receiving some form of assistance from Medicaid. i googled the population of Indiana and got 6.806 million as of 2021. I did the division and came up with 0.333529. That is 1 in 3 people in Indiana. This number seems extraordinary to me. Is it just me?
I guess it is a 50% increase from pre covid. Even the math for Janaury 2022 is 1.5/6.806=0.22039, which is a little over 1 in 5. That is obviously better but still seem high to me. Seniors make up 16.9% of our population 64 and older. Surely only 1 in 5 in that age group…maybe as high as 1 in 3. would be 5.63% ….where are all these other medicaid claims coming from?
Your tax dollars at work. How about alcohol and cigarettes with food stamps.
It’s almost like accelerating income tax cuts based on short-term cash flows was a bad idea! Where else have I seen this? Oh yeah, the “Great Kansas Tax Cut Experiment.”
Step 1) claim tax cuts primarily for the rich will pay for themselves and stimulate the economy, despite all evidence to the contrary
Step 2) at the first sign of having cut taxes too far (exploding deficit), pretend to be serious about the deficit and propose massive cuts that affect the middle class as the only solution. Rolling back those tax cuts? Never an option.
Step 3) repeat steps 1 and 2 on a loop.
Illegal aliens and their children. More coming every day.
Please provide your credible source of data suggesting that this billion-dollar shortfall can be blamed on an increase in undocumented immigrants, and that their population is increasing every day. Or did you just make that up?
Many of the same people complaining about inflation and high wages are the same people who blame everything on immigrants.
I mean, pick one or the other.
Illegal immigrants can’t enroll in Medicaid and CHIP, but nice attempt at veiling your racism.
A.R., “illegal immigrant” is not a race. But nice job conflating the two, now THAT is textbook racism.
We hear lots of complaints about the costs of helping the needy but rarely complaints about State using taxpayer money for corporate welfare schemes to boost the rich business sector that knows how to work the pay for power political system in their favor.
Corporations don’t pay taxes. They collect them.
Well, they may or may not pay them, depending on how much they pass on to their customers. But I don’t think that was the point of Charles B’s comment. I think it was about how corporations are frequently the beneficiaries of state tax dollars in what may or may not be corporate welfare programs. For example, maybe by state and local grants for new business construction that likely would occur anyway, and the expected tax receipt revenue to the state or local government does not equal the payouts. I think this analysis often applies to sports venues, and greenfield corporate expansions.
