We report, you decide -- A viewpoint on Medicaid

The Macon Telegraph gives its take on the current fiscal situation with Medicaid in today's editorials. Take a minute now and read this; we are going to be hearing a whole lot more rather than less about this topic in the future. The tenor of the editorial is found in its headline "Medicaid expenses place state in no-win situation" and first paragraph:

Gov. Sonny Perdue is faced with a conundrum. The dictionary defines "conundrum" as a "problem admitting of no satisfactory solution." The state has many problems, but the one fleeing solutions the fastest is Medicaid. The program is running a $172 million deficit, and none of the ideas to cut back on services or eligibility are palatable.
