medicaid is a program that is washington controlled and it is done in such a way that it stops innovation and experimentation at the state level. it makes it harder for states to customize the medicaid population and program to work for their particular states, and as a result, more and more doctors don t take medicaid. what good is your coverage if you can t get a doctor? and that is a huge growing problem with medicaid. medicaid is also growing at an unsustainable rate, so there s ballooning costs threatening the very viability of the program and our physical future, so what we propose is to modernize the medicaid program, along the lines that we as republicans have been talking about for years. i think it was ronald reagan in, like, the 70s when he was governor who said the states should take over control of medicaid. every budget we have had as republicans, when i was budget chair writing my road maps, every one of our conservative budgets said let s get medicaid

the sidewalk and it needs to be aware of the surroundings. reporter: how does it get to the warehouse from the person s house? we re doing our own mapping. the maps that our robot needs are quite special. they are more sidewalk maps than the road maps. reporter: excuse me, sir, can you help me? i m trying to steal a robot. theft deterrents include gps tracking and cameras. each unit just isn t that valuable, he says. the most expensive part in the robot is about $40. and that s actually the point of it. it has to be a low-cost machine. reporter: and he says your groceries are safe as well. you get a notification in your smart phone when the robot
amaz amazon s membership cost $300 a year. one of skype s founders believes he can bring costs down with self-driving robots. what does it have in it different from the cart i use to get my groceries. the cart doesn t have nine cameras, but our robot does. and it s six-wheel drive, it has electric motors and various other sensors. the robot is observing pedestrians, navigating on the sidewalk, and needs to be aware of its surrounding. reporter: how does it get from the warehouse to the person s house? are you using google maps. we are doing our own mapping actually, because the maps that our robots need are quite special. they are more sidewalk maps than road maps. exactly. exactly.
