Gov. Rick Scott still mulling Medicaid expansion after health care ruling

http://www.tampabay.com/news/politics/gubernatorial/rick-scott-still-mulling-medicaid-expansion-after-health-care-ruling/1237963

From the Article:

""What I'm concerned about is that what happened with that bill being declared constitutional is the fact that it's going to be bad for patients, bad for taxpayers, bad for businesses," he said Friday after a speech in Tampa. "But we'll be looking at that — the issue over the exchanges, the issue over whether we can afford to expand Medicaid"

Translation: he is waiting to see what sort of avalanche hits Bobby Jindal for outright bucking the law.

this post. After the huge fraud case with the huge fine when he was CEO and conveniently had resigned prior to the case, he's now looking for another way to scam the gov't to put more money in his wallet. And the voters in FL actually elected this clown Governor???? Unbelievable!!

So if you can't afford insurance because you have no job, you need to get a job. He offers nothing in it's place if he doesn't expand medicaid.
