I just looked at the Boston.com article and 2 things jumped out at me.
1) More medicaid money. The article says that Mass will get 2 billion more in Medicaid money. Right now my hopsital is suing the state because the governor isn't paying out the Medicaid money that is due to us and other hospitals. Maybe there will be more Medicaid money, but where will it go?
Taxes on Luxury insurance plans. If your insurance plan costs more that $10,500/year, you will be subject to up to 40% fine just for having it. That isn' if you pay $10,500.00. That's if it's WORTH $10,500.00. So those of us who stay in crap jobs because health care is provided will probably be fined for that "unearned income". But wait, there's more: Insurance premiums are going to skyrocket, so even a crappy insurance policy may be worth $10,500.00 by the time they come looking for the money.
But it's ok. the next step is amnesty for all the illegal immigrants, who will then be added to the insurance rolls.
It just gets better and better.
By "better and better" I mean I probably won't be alive when all the shit hits the fan.

Whether it is or isn't, how would you know. what with the alzheimer's and all.
Note the lack of a t in that word. Altzhiemers sounds like a chat room.
