"allowing parents to enroll children in the program even if they don't sign up for employer-sponsored coverage" - If this statement doesn't prove the Dems want to get as many people on the government dole to get their vote, nothing will.

Cable, Iphones, smokes, beer and tatoos are very expensive these days. No wonder those who work in non-government jobs have to pay for everyone's health care.

Well done, Commissioner! Folks often don't understand how these actions save the state money, besides being the right thing to do for children.

Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses? As the other posters seem to suggest, perhaps these people should die and decrease the surplus population.

I hope this won't impact tax cuts for the, er, job creators? I mean what do children need with health care coverage anyway when we have rich people struggling to hoard money overseas?

I love how politicians use the term "Working Families". What is the definition of a working family? I have a family and I work, so I must qualify as a working family. Millionaires work and have families so they must be a working family too.
