Letter: Your story convinced me. We should abolish Medicaid.

By Letters to the Editor | [email protected] | Southern California News Group

If your story about the autistic 28-year-old Westminster man who requires "round-the-clock" support including six in-home workers attempts to evoke pity from readers, it fails; on the contrary, this policy established 60 years ago elicits resentment. We should not only reduce Medicaid, it should be totally eliminated.

The mother of this woman most likely owns her home in Westminster. The median price of a home in Westminster is $2,072,000 while condos average $689,000. The mother of this person should be required to liquidate her assets to pay for these costs before the public pays. She produced him, she pays for him. Otherwise, place him in a state hospital where the care to him is "free."

Do the math! Six workers times 24 hours a day times some 60 years more of life is in the millions.
