    Utah, Pennsylvania, Arizonia, Iowa already caved or are in the process of caving. Even Florida! They're dropping like flys:D

    I expect Wyoming to be one of the last holdouts.[everybody there is a gambler, a lover, and rides wild bulls. There is no such thing as indigent in Wyoming.] One of the tricks to watch for is to take the money, sign the agreement, but call it something other than "Medicaid Expansion" for local consumption.

    It's hilarious really.

    I agree. Republicans keep House, Democrats the Senate. No change in ACA. Can't change it without both houses. That's bad, because it is going to need revision if it is going to be worth a damn. This will be the Republicans way of continuing to make Obama look bad, as if he needed help!, try to keep ACA fucked up, by blocking any attempts to revise it for the better. It's all politics all the time.

    Wow, your quoted article goes on to highlight that, Nationally, Medicaid Expansion is a Job Killer.

    I've been thinking for many months now Wyoming is going to be my first choice state of residence for retirement. Did you know they have the lowest beer taxes in the country?

    It would be one of my first choices as well.
    I don't need medicaid:D (They'll expand eventually too. No State can politically afford to turn down that kind of money forever.)

    Beautiful Summers, Cold cold winters. And not many people, just a lot of antelopes. I love that State!
    Oh, give me a home, where the Buffalo Roam, and the Deer and the Antelope play. Where Seldom is heard a discouraging word, and the skies are not cloudy all day.

    I know. It was in Forbes. What did you expect. " You have to read these things with a juandiced eye. In the state it will create 70,000 MORE jobs but in the nation it will kill jobs. Yah, right! :D

    Did you happen to see any data in the piece supporting the medicaid crowding out argument?

    Isn't that a sad state of affairs.
    Citizens being coerced into taking money from a central government in exchange for massive loss of freedoms and liberty. Money that was theirs to begin with before being stolen from them by that same government through taxes.

    One of the most sparsely populated regions on the planet. In the top 10 or 20 I think.
