Medicaid expansion is good for the Georgia economy:
Medicaid expansion is expected to bring $36 billion in direct federal funds to the state and have a cumulative impact of $72 billion on the economy over the next 10 years. Since poor health is the most common reason to miss work, and since medical bills are the leading cause of bankruptcy, Medicaid expansion could also play a role in maintaining the health of the workforce, preventing medical bankruptcies, and even preventing related foreclosures. A healthy Georgia is a prosperous Georgia. https://www.change.org/p/governor-deal-medicaid-expansion-is-a-good-deal-for-georgia
Whose blocking my medicaid and why?
Nathan Deal and the Georgia General Assembly (House & Senate), they have run on platforms of denying entitlements in order to accomplish this. So, in many ways, the grossly uninsured and unsophisticated voters in Georgia did this. What the uniformed voter must come to terms with is that all the people at the bottom are treated the same irregardless who they like. Sophisticated votes overstand figure out the programs they need to survive, and then they vote the programs not the people. Gov. Nathan Deal (R) on Jan. 16, 2013, confirmed he does not support Medicaid expansion. On March 28, 2013, both the House and Senate adjourned for the 2013 session. A bill to encourage Deal to consider expanding Medicaid died in the House in February 2013. Deal in May 2013 signed legislation creating the Joint Study Committee on Medicaid Reform, but it was "for the purposes of determining an appropriate plan for Medicaid reform," not specifically expanding the program under the ACA.
