It is pecular that the Republican candidate wouldn't talk about his successful state based exchange program.... Very pecular indeed he didn't campaign on that program..... I wonder why...... It can't possibly be that conservatives don't want a solution.......

Because Massachusetts has fully implemented Obamacare/Romneycare. It doesn't sound like you're saying what you think you're saying.

Also, here is a Texas site:

Health Insurance Texas

Texas has the lowest percentage of residents with Health Insurance coverage in the country.

Oh! Here's one! The title sounds great until you read the article dated April 2015

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...0430124837.htm

The percentage of Texans without health insurance dropped 31 percent since enrollment began in the Affordable Care Act's Health Insurance Marketplace, according to a new report. Despite this improvement, Texas remains the state with the highest percentage of people without health insurance, and for the first time, Texas now has the largest number of uninsured residents in the country.


Study: Texas' Rate of Uninsured Falls | The Texas Tribune

But Texas remains the state with the highest percentage of uninsured people, the study found, and for the first time, the state has the largest raw number of uninsured residents in the country.

Good question, but were any of them running for the president and had their own successful public/private health solution...... It sucks politics gets in the way of viable legislation.

So when are you going to hold your legislators accountable for solutions healthcare?

.
I'm all for Busing a few million illegals up your way and letting Seattle pickup the tab for education and their medical.
These 30 or so million (many in states like TX) will never buy any kind of insurance.

These states that are dropping their state exchanges will fall under the upcoming SCOTUS ruling that will cut subsidies.

This quote from your links says it all:

"The report found that from September 2013 to March 2015, the percentage of uninsured adult Texans ages 18-64 dropped from 25 to 17 percent."

Why do you think it DROPPED?

So then let them continue to tie up local resources and revenue in our hospitals? Or should we come up with a solution?

Good. Hopefully you'll demand solutions as any idiot can tell you what's wrong with something. So you don't mind Romney being silent about his healthcare solutions?

I know who represents me here in Texas, thanks for asking!

Apparently it didn't drop them enough to change Texas from being the WORST in the country. Why do you think that is? They are the WORST.
