The country that today you truly love and can enjoy all of it s freedoms and prosperity and security if obama is re-elected because obamacare is a harbarjer of things to come. and the states have a decision to make right now with the medicaid expansion and they need to decide if they are going to opt in or opt out. under this decision they have a chance to opt out and it s a very sort of pricey matter for the states. on the other hand, they will have a lot of people who don t have coverage. at leasted ones with the large populations that are under certain income levels. how do you foresee that whole medicaid expansion thing unfolding? many, many states are not going to be able to afford expansion of medicaid and these exchanges that are going to try to be forced down states throats through obamacare. i would like to see governors be tough and opt out of this and exert our tenth amendment rights and tell president obama, who does not understand the constitution, he even being a ....
