Obama harps on how well Mass insurance works?

Unfortunately, I saw the same interview this morning, and it is very disheartening news.

How the MASS health care system can be used as a positive "model" is baffling.

When the MASS State Treasurer Tim Cahill says the system is bankrupting the state, and that Federal dollars are being used to keep it going should be a rude awakening.

Obviously Obama wants a health care bill passed, and will push his agenda to do so by any means possible.

Here you go, David:

"State Treasurer Tim Cahill today faulted Gov. Deval Patrick for mismanaging the state’s health care initiative and warned that the consequences would be disastrous if a similar health care program were enacted nationally.

“'If President Obama and the Democrats repeat the mistakes of the health insurance mandate in Massachusetts on a national level, they will bankrupt this country within four years,' Cahill said. 'It is time for the President and the Democratic Leadership to go back to the drawing board and come up with a new plan that does not threaten to wipe out the American economy.'”

You have to watch FOX news to get this story. That is exactly what the treasurer said. He also made it known that this health care over haul will bankrupt the entire nation. He should know, it's his responsibility to know.

"But now we here from the treasurer of the state who say the thing has bankrupt the state and is federally assisted with our tax dollars to keep it going,"

I didn't hear that. Perhaps you can provide a link so I can read it for myself. For some reason I don't have blind faith in your interpretation.

2015 and the new Governor Baker of Massachusetts has to deal with a 2 billion dollar deficit almost half caused by health care system

Mass. has some of the highest wait times to see a doctor in the US.

That's a good question.

I personally don't think this stupid bill will do anything for anyone and hurt everyone.

I'm was hoping that you would get some people from Massachusetts (and Hawaii) to answer and really tell it like it is.
