Dr. Mehmet Oz, the current Medicare and Medicaid Services administrator, doesn’t seem to know who actually relies on the programs he oversees.
In an interview with “Fox & Friends” Monday, Oz claimed the program was originally intended only to assist young children, the elderly and the disabled ― and that in the last few years it’s been gamed by “able-bodied” people who “just hang out” and watch television all day.
“When the program was created 60 years ago, it never dawned on anyone that you would take able-bodied individuals who could work ― and put them on Medicaid,” Oz claimed.
“Today, the average able-bodied person on Medicaid doesn’t work. They watch 6.1 hours of television or just hang out. That’s not fair. Go out and try to get a job.”
