Some even provide dental care! Cleaning, basic cavity filling. Need a root canal? Not gonna happen. Need a cap or a rebuild of a damaged tooth? See ya. They will PULL your tooth, but only if it's not to complicated. When your teeth are gone and you need dentures? Sorry, no can do. Same for medical care, just basic care. Got a serious medical issue? Need high dollar drugs for Hep C, cancer or whatever? To bad.

The income requirements are such that the "sliding scale" fee for "free service" means you likely qualify for Medicaid already.

But I'm glad they are there, they offer a good basic service for many.

Are you seriously telling me, and everyone, that the existing Government program CANNOT do its job. But the new Government program, loaded with thousands of pages of pork, WILL?

The program is already there, if it doesn't work, REFORM THAT! Too simple?
