[Vision2020] House passes "gap" bill

Wed Mar 23 21:14:06 PDT 2016

From "Eye on Boise" (spokesman.com). The House debated and voted on $5
million to community health care centers instead of expanding Medicaid. One
comment in the debate:

Rep. Pete Nielsen, R-Mountain Home, said, “Yes, I feel bad for the 78,000
people, who wouldn’t? But it still crosses that line that I don’t think I
have a right to cross, and that’s basically this: Do I have the right to
force you, you, and you to do something that I can’t do myself? Now this is
a government of the people, by the people, and for the people, and the
people created this government. Now if I cross that line, and say
yessirree-Bob, the creature that I’ve created becomes greater than the
creator, then where do you draw the line to stop this? Now I agree this is
a heart-wrenching situation.” But he warned of a “start down the road of
socialism to the Nth degree.” Nielsen said, “President Grover Cleveland said
this. … ‘Though the people support the government, the government should
not support the people.’ How we have changed.”

And from the comments

   I heard theat Grover Cleveland's comment was with regard to farm
   subsidies. Any irony here?
