Demand to have Medicaid expansion in Florida

Florida is minimum wage is $8.10 an hour which is our quarter of what you need to actually have the basic necessities to live eat and transport back-and-forth to work. Since Obamacare most companies have caught full-time employees down to part time so they don't have to give them benefits. If you're unemployed such as many are as well as my daughter. You do not qualify for Obamacare. My daughter was kicked off of her insurance from myself when she turned 26 she has been going to school full-time to try to get her degree in the meantime my daughter has serious health issues. She isn't tire need of dental work she needs medications etc. she has been declined for Medicaid numerous times apparently the rule in Florida is if you have a child under the age of 18 is the only way you can get Medicaid . I don't make that much money as I'm sure most of the population in Florida doesn't either that can afford out-of-pocket for the expense of medications etc. if people are unemployed and they're either trying to make something out of them selves or they're trying to get back in the career path and they have health issues and no way to take care of those health issues it seems very unfair that they are not able to get any kind of medical help. Even if you try to apply under Obamacare they want to charge my daughter $300 a month with a $6000 deductible . Please tell me how that is affordable? Why not expand Medicaid to help the people of Florida are young children are adults that have diseases like diabetes where they need medication and they can't get help from anyone.
