        Well, we know that Obama was born in Hawaii AND he wasn’t born in America, therefore Hawaii is not American (… I saw that key and peele sketch yesterday)

      Hawaii has a good, free or low cost medicaid program. They also have a state law that makes sure many part time employees get insurance, as well. Somewhere around 95%, of the popualtion, if not more, have some form of insurance.

          All states will be affected. Mostly, it means each state will have to spend more of its own money to maintain the same level of care.

          What that means for the people will vary by state.
