Some smart s.o.b.

You know, somewhere in this great nation of ours has to be a Democratic governor who has the good sense to stand up and say something along the lines of this:

"I welcome the Medicaid expansion to our state and look to a future where we have citizens who are among the healthiest in the nation because all of our state's citizens will now be covered.  And we welcome those of you who live in states that are contemplating not accepting the federal funds to move here and join the best and the brightest, in the knowledge that you and your children will be among the healthiest in the land.  And we also welcome all those businesses who want healthy employees, and healthy families so they miss less work.  We want to welcome you to a state where our healthcare costs are actually going down, because we are no longer wasting precious taxpayer resources routinely paying for emergency care services.  Our people have health insurance and they're using it to make their lives better and our state stronger."

Can I get an amen?

Peace,
