Medicaid expansion cost $1 trillion, double the estimate -- Harris...

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : That bill, which would restrict the ability of able-bodied adults without young children to access Medicaid, would save $240 billion over the next decade, our analysis found -- as people leave Medicaid for productive work and the superior private coverage that usually comes with it.
47% : It remains the Democratic Party's template for health-care reform, including Harris' since-reversed 2019 promise to enact "Medicare for All.
47% : Her party opposes work requirements, and she'd likely push the 10 holdout states to expand Medicaid, perhaps forcing their hand through legislation or regulation.
47% : We estimate this would cost at least another $670 billion over a 10-year span, adding another 11 million able-bodied adults to Medicaid.
42% : If Trump brought back his work requirements in a second term, dozens of states would likely enact them.
41% : If Harris pushes for more sweeping health-care changes -- say, bringing back her earlier support for Medicare for All -- she'll cause even worse taxpayer pain.
40% : They're competing with the truly needy Americans who Medicaid was designed to help, leading to longer wait times and worse health outcomes in many cases.
21% : Taxpayers need the return of Donald Trump's health-care policies: Under a President Harris, they can only expect a worsening health-care crisis -- one that undermines America's fiscal soundness, economic strength, and the well-being of the very people Medicaid is supposed to help.
