Excellent summary. I can add one more. “They tried it in Massachusetts and it’s a complete failure.” They’re dropping legal immigrants from the system because they’re looking at a 200 billion dollar deficit next year. Hawaii tried a program to provide healthacare for uninsured children. That went bankrupt because people who had insurance that would have otherwise qualified cancelled their health insurance to get the free state-provided insurance.
But Mitt said last week or so that Romney care was a model to look to.
