(6,806 posts)You would think the propaganda would have worn thin 20 years ago, but no, you can still convince people to empty their pockets in front of you while you pick their pockets from behind.

Remember, logical thinking is seriously lacking in the MAGAverse.

(2,065 posts)If you want to see how many people in your district will lose their Medicaid.
In Elise Stefanik's district, 55,000 people will lose their Medicaid
She has 5 of the poorest counties in NY in her district.
Rural hospitals will be threatened by Medicaid cuts, so even if you do not have Medicaid as an insurance, your access to health care could be affected.

(226 posts)an email to my representative Lyin Lisa Mcclain. There are 136,000 in her district MI-9 on medicaid. The population of MI-9 is ~776,000.
So 17.5% of the population in her district is on medicaid.

(The origins of the phrase can be traced back to the fourteenth century and William Langland's narrative poem, Piers Plowman)

(2,622 posts)And yeah, for those of us in the 21st this makes no sense at all...
Then geten a mom of heore mouth til moneye weore schewed!"
For whatever reason, as of late I tend to look up word origins when I see one that on the surface doesn't seen to add up, as in "mum's" the word, which I reflexively wrote first then asked myself 'whut'? We also attend a number of Shakespearean plays, so I find myself looking up those as well. For example,
The phrase notably appears in Shakespeare's Henry VI, Part 2, Act 1, Scene 2:
"Seal up your lips and give no words but mum."
