We believe in providing basic education for the betterment of the country and I think that basic health care is on the same vein.

I do worry about the cost of this bill.

Medicare was projected to cost 10 Billion by 2010 and it cost 120 billion.

I don't have any faith in any of the predictions of saving on the deficit etc.

let me ask a question,

so if someone is unemployed, no matter the age they can apply for Medicaid?

Medicaid is a joint federal-state program that provides health insurance coverage to certain categories of low-income individuals, including children, pregnant women, parents of eligible children, and people with disabilities. Medicaid was created to help low-income individuals who fall into one of these eligibility categories "pay for some or all of their medical bills." [ 8 ] Medicaid helps eligible individuals who have little or no medical insurance. While Congress and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) set out the main rules under which Medicaid operates, each state runs its own program. Under certain circumstances, any category of applicant may be denied coverage. As a result, the eligibility rules differ significantly from state to state, although all states must follow the same basic framework.
