ANOTHER VIEW Gov. Scott surrenders

ov. Rick Scott could not resist the siren song of “free” federal money, and now he is steering Florida’s fiscal future toward the rocky shoals. It’s up to the Legislature to chart a dif- Gferent course. Scott on Wednesday agreed to expand Medicaid coverage to Floridians with incomes up to 133 per- cent of the poverty line under the aegis of the federal Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare. That’s a sudden about-face on his opposition to the law that goes back to his campaign for governor in 2010. He had a valid reason: Expanding Medicaid would only accelerate its unsustainable growth. Alas, he appears to have been worn down by federal promises of funding all or most of the new Medicaid enrollees, the Obama administration’s regulatory approval of a state Medicaid proposal, intense lobby- ing of Florida’s hospital industry — and his re-election chances for 2014. Washington has pledged to pay 100 percent of the costs for these new Medicaid recipients for the first three years (2014-16). Beginning in 2017, the federal government would gradually drop that coverage to 90 percent of the costs in 2020 and beyond. That sounds too good to be true. Today’s promises The only ‘F’ I got in school are not binding on tomorrow’s Congresses and White Houses, especially with the nation in such dire finan- hen I was 12 years Then, to my amazement, my Daddy, cial straits.
