I have mixed feelings about moving in with my friend Jim if/when the gang of 12 cuts medicaid, housing assistance, etc. My two major priorities are medical treatment and shelter. I might be able to save money by rooming with Jim except that he's got a big place and the utilities expenses are out of sight. On the other hand, I'd get free Internet and cable since he already has these things. Also, I could turn his backyard into a giganto garden next spring which would make a difference on the food bill. Plus we could go in together on an elk - he'd shoot it, and I'd cook it. But he has a dog and I have two cats. My meds will cost in excess of $400/month without medicaid. What to do, what to do...
