PEOPLE AGE !!!! and Young Children get sick...... so throwing out "raw numbers" for the sake of drama spins... sound far too much like a Right Wing Republican Spin, rather than the "actual reality facts".
And among that % one is claiming is using services, is a vast number and % of those who vote Republican....and look at the volume of population over 50 who have met with every kind of corporate system stripping benefits since the 1970's. Then, go look across Rural America, the same Rural America that does not have mill towns anymore, and no industry and the falling down system of once upon a time farming communites, mining communities and metal working communities.... then look at the massive expanse of small business closures that once upon a time repaired things, or sold things, that can't compete with Walmart, Amazon and Ebay and other big mega companies, or Foreign Imports. Some small and moderate size town only have "medical system employment", local, state and federal government employment, and a few low paying commercial establishments as the basis of make up of these localities. In many of these especially the white sectors, they don't advertise they get and use benefits, because they already know the negative attitude and how they will be looked down upon, so they try and be covert in how they use it, but never the less, they still use it.
Maybe some of the people tripping should pay more attention when they are in the grocery store's and they'd know this. But many don't want to know, they only want to complain about the inner cities where white flight left and took the banks and the system of banking industry to lend, and people who own the broken down building and keep them as a tax write off, rather than structure a means to rent it to help the towns and challenged cities grow. "We need a crack down" of these types who damage cities by being determined to hang on to these for the sole sake of using it as a continuing tax write off... at the full detriment to the city.
Mississippi has a town that recognized this madness, and moved forward with an "economic imminent domain" program, to break the cycle of a few holding down cities by this tax sham gaming, other cities are striking back at the "slum lords"... and they are finding, job creation by forcing them to upgrade their properties to meet HUD housing standards, and not use these properties for guaranteed Section 8 income, while leaving the people living in slum dilapidated properties.
Tax Reform did not work, it only gave the wealthy a means not to invest in "anything".... and left in place the system of riding the system, by gaming it for even more tax writes off on using the closed building as a gambit piece to reduce taxes.
Now... let's get moving with the young people who will not allow anymore of the Right Wing Discrimination Gaming about Health Care.
