MAGA and Medicaid: Which States Have Highest Percentage of Beneficiaries?

The article from MSN discusses the relationship between MAGA (Make America Great Again) supporters and Medicaid beneficiaries, highlighting a paradox where states with high support for MAGA also have significant numbers of Medicaid recipients. It points out that in states like West Virginia, Kentucky, and Louisiana, which are known for their strong MAGA support, a large percentage of the population relies on Medicaid. For instance, in West Virginia, 35% of the population is enrolled in Medicaid, and in Kentucky, it's 30%. Despite the political rhetoric against government-funded health care, these states have not expanded Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, which could potentially increase the number of beneficiaries. The article suggests that this situation reflects a disconnect between political ideology and the economic realities of many residents in these states, where the need for government assistance is high, yet there's resistance to policies that would expand such programs.
