Romney implemented it first. Remember.
Right - but in Massachusetts. It only effected them, which I understand totally upset them.
Not particularly much of a fan of Romney, but what they did in MA was not even a small percentage of invasive as Obamacare. This is a completely power play to control the entire industry. Romney sucked on the issue and definitely paved the way for a mandate purchase, and for that he deserves scorn. Obamacare is so much worse in many ways, and not just because it’s national in scale vs statewide.
