Yeah, there we go, THIS is the next healthcare fight, state to state.
Vermont, probably Americas most progressive state, goes first.
VICTORY!!!
If I had the money I'd move there right away.
Use the money you'd save on your health insurance ... if you have it.
Didn't Massachusetts have single-payer health care, or was it different than Vermont's?
money is to politics as fertilizer is to garden weeds.
I believe massachusetts has a mandate with a public option for poor people.
lol be ready for the column of refugee heading to Verrmont.
Fictionnal interview:
Journalist: why did you move to Vermont sir?
American: Well, they got that verry cool single payer healthcare, and unlike canada there is no mayonnaise in their hamburger so i decided to move in.
WHY kléber, WHY!!!!!!!
It's all a Vermonter ploy to increase its electoral college delegation/put more socialists in congress. *tinfoil*
all hail the socialist republic of vermont. stay tuned for their massive display of military might during the may day parade.
WHY kléber, WHY!!!!!!!
We have a mandate that everyone must buy insurance, with a state option for low income people (MassHealth). I think we have 98-99% coverage.
I've roamed and rambled and I've followed my footsteps
o the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
And all around me a voice was sounding
This land was made for you and me
so this is how it work eh, you guy are FORCING people to buy healthcare?
what next concentration camps (sarcasm all the way)
WHY kléber, WHY!!!!!!!
After passage of the reform, Massachusetts fluctuates between 96% and 97%.
MassHealth is sort of a public option, I guess, though the Massachusetts reform bill certainly didn't create it. It's Medicaid in Massachusetts - and Medicaid is problematic for various reasons, not least of them being the GOP's recent attempts to essentially end the program.
Louisiana residents are so fucked. Jindal and his cronies are suing the feds for Obama care. Also theres actually a bill to make ALL abortions illegal by a New Orleans Reprentative. The shit floats to the top down here in the swamps.
By having no family … I inherited the family of humanity.
By having no possessions … I have possessed all.
By rejecting the love of one … I received the love of all.
By surrendering my life to the revolution … I found eternal life.

Would Jesus have endorsed Capitalism?
The community of believers was of one heart and mind, and no one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they had everything in common..... There was no needy person among them, for those who owned property or houses would sell them, bring the proceeds of the sale, and put them at the feet of the apostles, and they were distributed to each according to need.
(Acts 4:32-34)
Have you ever been to Vermont?
Well I'm lookin real hard and I'm trying to find a job but it just keeps gettin tougher every day
Massachusetts's current program is more similar to the healthcare changes Congress enacted.
Well the only socialist in the American government does represent Vermont.
What would the basic coverage offer?
"whatever they might make would never be the same as that world of dark streets and bright dreams"

Yeah, why?
Well, are you there now?
Like everyone else said it's just a really shitty version of private health care. People thought they were gonna get what state workers had, but they got something much worse.
But the health care for state workers ain't what it used to be either.
But now we must pick up every piece
Of the life we used to love
Just to keep ourselves
At least enough to carry on
