I don't know if I blame him specifically. But the Republicans have been gunning for this system for years and now they've got what they want, and frankly I have little respect for the annual economic woes of a state that ought to have another revenue source and is too immature to do it. There is no one person who can be blamed for this. It is a systemic problem.

] does your mother work?

No. I haven't really worked out how to deal with this yet. I'm going to wait and see. She'll be old enough for medicade in a few years and its possible that I can manage the risks in the meantime with certain kinds of limited policies. Its also possible that another solution for people in her category will be created. We'll see...

Anyway, your other comments in this post were interesting and seem much more informed then a lot of the commentary I've read on this so far.
