Big difference.

With Romneycare, it's a tax the people of Mass. imposed on themselves.

With Obamacare it's a tax Mass. wants to impose on everyone else.

The states have a right to do this if they want to, but it's their cost.

Those states do not have a right to force other states to help cover their cost.

I don’t think states have any more authority to penalize you for what you’re NOT doing than does the national government.

Call me crazy, but I think that’s massive, intrusive, abusive government. There’s nothing in our constitution that says states are allowed to abuse our basic rights.
