Women's health care moves to State approved privatization. Some large areas

will have very little coverage. Will unwanted babies be born at home like two centuries ago? Will there be little prenatal care for women without private health insurance? Seems like there is a great need for the ACA. Pregnant women are temporarily disabled and then are eligible for Medicare. Will the office at Midland move them to Medicare or deny them Medicaid because the State cannot fund all needed care with many new pregnancies. Who is going to make these discriminatory decisions?

Seems the State system is underfunded, by about 66% in my understanding.

1. Medicare is a single payer system. Medicaid picks up the other 20%.

2. Texas taxpayers will pick up foster care for the following 18 years if the baby is left

at a hospital or fire station.
