"Massachusetts Has The Largest Population Of Fools In Our World" Hands Down!

I think they were all taken by surprise since the state of Massachusetts already has a Health Care plan in place since 2008.

Health Care Reform

All Massachusetts residents are required to maintain health insurance. Health care reform works to improve the cost and quality of health care.

      Commonwealth Connector

      The Commonwealth Connector can help you learn more about the health care reform law. The Connector administers two programs: Commonwealth Care and Commonwealth Choice. Commonwealth Care connects uninsured individuals with incomes that fall within certain guidelines, and who meet other qualifications with approved health plans, and helps them pay for them. Commonwealth Choice offers private health insurance options for individuals, families and employers.
    *
      Mandated Health Insurance law

      Key provisions of the law include subsidized health insurance for residents earning less than 300% of the Federal Poverty Level, and low-cost insurance for all other residents who are not eligible for insurance through their employers.

      Health Care Reform Tax Information

      Health Insurance Responsibility Disclosure (HIRD) Information

      Massachusetts employers of 11 or more FTE employees must also disseminate and collect an Employee HIRD form from each employee that declines to enroll in employer-sponsored insurance or declines to use the employer's Section 125 Cafeteria Plan to pay for health insurance. The employer must retain the signed Employee HIRD for a period of three years.

Let's not forget that Massachuesett's healthcare plan was the product of Mitt Romney, a supposed conservative republican.
