Correction! Rich AL State Representative Phil Williams says " we need to begin a dialogue on what it means to be poor"

 I mistakenly  identified Phil Williams as a State Senator in my original post.  Never let it be said I won't correct mistakes when they are pointed out to me.  Thanks for the catch Brian!~ Redeye

No, Representative Williams, we need to begin a dialogue on what it means to be rich.

State Representative Phil Williams ( r. rich) explains why he is voting NO on the September 18th vote to, as he calls it, raid the Alabama Oil and Gas Trust fund in order to fill a $200,000,000 dollar short fall in Medicaid.

One of the reasons the pro-life, pro family, Representative is against it is because he thinks we need to have a dialogue about what it means to be poor because the CHIPS program provides free health insurance to a family of four who earns $62,000.00 per year.  


Now I don't know where he got that figure, but I would like to see him raise a family of 4 on $64,000.00 per year.

Again, considering the polices of the modern republican party, this is very true.  Their main policy is to make the rich richer at the expense of everyone else.  Anyone who is not rich and is still votes republican is voting against their own  interest...and therefore is a sucker.


I will be voting YES on September 18th  to raid the Alabama Oil and Gas Trust Fund to fill a short fall in Medicaid and CHIPS, because Medicaid and CHIP provide health coverage to children, pregant women, parents, seniors and individuals with disabilities.
