Did you know the Repugs tried to force a child to have a Passport to get Medicaid... GRRRRRR
From today's editorial in the Roanoke Times

Proving they're Americans
Thousands of Virginia children were punished because Washington wanted to purge
phantom illegal aliens from Medicaid rolls.

Nine months after the federal government began requiring that state Medicaid recipients prove they are
U.S. citizens, the numbers are in: Six out of 10 eligible Virginia children wait weeks or months for care
because of the burdensome requirements.

The change in the law was meant to keep illegal immigrants from taking advantage of the benevolence of
American taxpayers. Instead, it has kept the very people Medicaid is supposed to help from seeing
doctors.

Of course, this was expected at the outset. Studies of Medicaid programs found that very few illegal
immigrants were mistakenly or fraudulently on the rolls. Still the xenophobes pushed for a requirement
that all Medicaid recipients show up at a state office with passport in hand.


..cut..

Second, poorer Virginians, not exactly globetrotters, aren't likely to spend nearly $100 on a passport. The
government in its foresight decided then to allow certified copies of birth certificates with another piece of
identification. But again, this proves difficult for families caring for foster children or relatives' children or
even their own for whom they thought the record from the hospital would suffice.

..more at article...

In the end Virginia is now signing up less CHILDREN for Medicaid than before the Federal Law and children was waiting for paperwork showing they are Americans and can not get medical help until the paperwork is done.

Might be coming soon. Shit.
BGE has increased it's bill 50 or more percent a passport costs 100 bucks to get..Fuck That I can't afford it if I want to eat and have light at night.I hate all the so called"elite" RICH PIGS!! First It began with Social security numbers..Than it's show your ID-card/drivers license birth certificate, than you need to show a passport than what's next? What "proof" will satisfy the xenophobic control freaks and soothe middle class resentment? Already criminals wear ankle bracelets turning home into a jail.Cell phones can tell police where you are at..Google street view can show your movements to the world..Cameras at every corner now..Piss tests are REQUIRED.. How much INTRUSION is ENOUGH???!!

My therapist told me that she thought pretty soon they will demand patients be chipped to get benefits like SSI or medicaid.I agreed with her.We talked awhile..

One set up for this is getting people in a twist about illegal immigrants getting free medicaid. Middle class people at least where I live because their employers are shafting them all over are brimming with resentment about immigrants, poor people, homeless, disabled people

A chip not only can store your info all you need is a scanner to read it,also it can carry drugs in slow release form.(haldol is already available in implant form along with birth control.and I am sure there are other nasty technologies I don't know
about..yet.

"We appear to be edging towards an era of 'mind control' -- a time when human brains might be manipulated routinely by highly sophisticated technology." -- Nicholas Regush, ABC News, Sept 5, 2001

http://studio-5.financialcontent.com/smalltimes?GUID=2124141&Page=MediaViewer&Ticker=DOC
Actual 1974 Congressional Testimony of Dr. Jose Delgado -

"We need a program of PSYCHOSURGERY for POLITICAL CONTROL of our society. The purpose is PHYSICAL CONTROL OF THE MIND. Everyone who deviates from the given norm can be SURGICALLY MUTILATED.

"The individual may think that the most important reality is his own existence, but this is only his personal point of view. This lacks historical perspective.

"Man does NOT HAVE THE RIGHT to develop his own mind. This kind of liberal orientation has great appeal. We must ELECTRICALLY CONTROL THE BRAIN. Some day armies and generals will be controlled by electric stimulation of the brain."

Dr. Jose M.R. Delgado Director of Neuropsychiatry Yale University Medical School Congressional Record, No. 26, Vol. 118 February 24, 1974

2. I thought about the chipping of people
While watching the Japanese anime film Paprika. It's about invading people's dreams. It was excellent, especially the animation. But it might get you pissed off.
