I know Maine is supposed to have especially painted itself into a healthcare corner, but could you briefly explain the major legislation that has caused such problems?

I can address that.

In 1993, when HillaryCare was bombing in DC, the geniuses in the Maine Legislature killed their high risk pool (which was functioning perfectly) and enacted the legislative "reforms" of Community Rating and Guaranteed Issue.
