Longer Story...

But Medicaid dental insurance now pays for 3 check ups a year for kids under 6 which is better than my paid for dental insurance. How I know this is a longer story, but suffice to say our policy makers now believe the people for who I (the taxpayer) pay dental insurance for (the poor) deserve better dental care than those who pay for their own insurance. To point this out will offend liberal minded peoples, but if you need me to explain why this is unstable and unsustainable, I don't know what to say. But maybe start with this: I don't have much hope for curing things like "systemic racism" if there's a large part of our population who can't figure out how to brush their kids teeth twice a day.
