Another legislative debacle brought to you by a Republican.

There's a good reason the unofficial moniker of the GOP is "The Stupid Party".

Scratch Mitts name off the list of Presidential contenders.

This idiot politician doesn't realize that there's no "personal responsibility" involved when the government dictates to the individual where and when they have to invest their earned money. A good health-care plan is a choice based on affordability, not on legal red-tape and beuracratic boondoggles like this.

Mandatory healthcare worries me:

Do a keyword search for NHS and see what a disaster it's been for the UK and Scotland.

Linda Thompson barely gets by on her $200-a-week job.

OK...Just by this first line I know this story is BS. There is no way in hell anyone who lives in this country has a job that pays $200 a week, nooooo way. Even if they are illegal, and judging by this womans name she don`t sound like no Mexican.

LOL...all this woman has to do is find a job that pays $600/yr. less and she'll have free health care. I predict the state will go broke with all the people who will qualify for the free insurance. Honestly, what kind of clueless people do we have running our state governments? Poor people are always more savvy than these sheltered idiots who are perpetually surprised at being outsmarted by the underclass.

OH COME ON!! And we are talking about Mass here and she is making $200 a week? You can make more sitting on your arse getting checks from simply existing, unemployment, welfare, sitting on a corner with a can asking for donations for Ted Kennedys re-election campaign or Al-Qaeda support would make you a millionaire in a week.

OK, the person who must buy health insurance but doesn't is faced with fines topping $1,000. So, how does the person not able to afford the insurance pay the fine?

If you can't pay the fine, do you go to jail? Are they going to fill up their jails with the medically uninsured?

Madness...This is absolute madness.

"If people don't take personal responsibility for their own health insurance, then the rest of us have to pay when that person ends up in the hospital,"

No we don't.
