We have excellent but danged expensive insurance through Wolfram Research, so we investigated Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich's "KidCare rebate" program. If you're approved, you get a monthly check from Governor Rod to help cover the cost of insurance premiums.
Nice, eh? Not so much. We don't make the $X.00 per month required to have our kids covered by the rebate program, and we don't make the $X.00 + $300.00 per month required to cover all of us.
Yes, we're too poor to receive help with our insurance premiums. It then became obvious what the governor is up to. Poor people like us shouldn't have medical insurance at all - we should be vassals of the all-powerful Democrats who run Illinois like a plantation and we should receive all care and treatment through them. The high thresholds for rebates are an incentive to leave insurance and enter the state system, which we can't bring ourselves to trust with our special-needs children.
A point to remember in the upcoming presidential campaign season: Illinois' health program is a testbed for HillaryCare's socialized medicine.
