GOP governors in 3 more states fighting to expand Medicaid (independent, companies, Jesus)

[sholomar]

The mistake they made was not going full national health care, taking the burden completely off employers... imho.

what governors do in their states, is up to the governor and the state legislature. and that is where state run health care should be done, at the state level not at the federal level.

ACA isn't failing, conservative principles are.

It sucks for those that fall through the gaps, but it is fun to laugh at failed conservative principles that hurt people instead of helping.

"my plan begins by covering every american. If you already have health insurance, the only thing that will change for you under this plan is that the amount of money you will spend on premiums will be less," obama said. "if you are one of 45 million americans who don't have health insurance, you will after this plan becomes law."

Republicans don't like universal health care, but Richard Nixon was all for it.

Compulsory comrehensive health insurance policy participation is failure, not success.

The more uninsured, the better. You learned nothing from prior bubbles.

The more uninsured, the better? That is right wing logic for you. Having people with health insurance has nothing of do with bubbles.
