Kansas Republican Governor Sam Brownback is stuck between a rock and hard place. Brownback and Kansas’ Republican-controlled state legislature are now seriously considering expanding Medicaid under Obamacare. But - they’re not considering the move for the sake of the people of Kansas. They’re considering it because Kansas’ economy is in the tank - and that state needs to save money and fast. That’s because back in 2012 - Brownback decided to give Reaganomics and austerity a try.
