I live in MA, were i am required to have health insurance.
i am also a bit drunk at the moment... so bear with me.
but if Obamacare is popular, and so needed (as many would say) why wasnt it mandated at the state level?
or at least heavily encouraged?
I've been laid off once in my carreer, and being forced to either pay for COBRA or pay the penaly dam near bank rupted me. that being said, i am ok with the idea that was the healthcare law in MA.'
So back to my question.... why havent stated been pressued to adopt policies that would cover people living in there states, and that way, each state could taylor the laws and requiments to what best suited them.
Why did everyone one that wanted Obamacare wait for a federal mandate as opposed to being more proactive at the state level?
