Medicare Reform Bill

[Democratic Hawk]

I introduce the following amendment:

6. The Federal Government shall cease future spending on Medicaid.  All current funds allocated to Medicaid shall be distributed to the regions as grants.

This formed part of the President's original Bill, which Senator MasterJedi would not sponsor. Still, I believe it should be considered by the Senate as to whether it should or shouldn't be included in the final Bill

While, I'm more than happy to introduce this amendment, I will not be voting in its favor

Ugh, you had to introduce that amendment when you know it won't pass and it will waste time. I hate when people do that. -_-

That's not the point

Yes it is. I introduced the bill without that because I didn't support it probably neither does the whole Senate and also to save time. You introduced it when you don't support it and probably neither does the whole Senate and it wastes time. So it is the point.

I've stated my reason for introducing it. If I didn't have a reason for introducing the amendment, I wouldn't have bothered

Just because I was of the conviction that the Senate ought to consider it, it doesn't follow that I support it. I vote Nay on the amendment

[Democratic Hawk]

Aye
