lolz, I got a little ahead of myself didn't I? No, of course every state hasn't expanded yet, but about half have. Are those states "insane", fiscally speaking? That's the question I tried to ask (though admittedly very poorly).

Uhmmmm, hey NC feel free to not take the medicare help from the feds. Maybe then your state wont be getting over 2 dollars for every 1 dollar they pay into the federal system

Seriously though....its madness to leave this huge gap of people with no insurance.

Look - Jan Brewer approved the expansion. That alone should have every conservative thinking that it's at least worthy of consideration. She's not exactly a lefty.
