Re "GOP's push to cut Medicaid is shortsighted and just plain mean," Column, Aug. 3
Just as slumlords have been sentenced by courts to actually live in the hovels they own, I'd like to see Rep. Todd Rokita (R-Ind.), who is sponsoring a bill to freeze Medicaid spending, be denied his plush congressional healthcare policy in favor of the Medicaid he claims coddles the unfortunates forced to depend on it.

Since when is a spending freeze considered a cut? An example of a cut would be an allowance of $10 per week reduced to $8. A freeze would leave the $10 allowance unchanged until I could afford to pay more.
