Other states do not have innovative, forward thinking governors like Governor Mitt Romney to get these plans passed. Texas, for example, would like to keep 50% of its residents uninsured, even though TX has some of the best healthcare in the country. Mississippi insists on being 50 out of 50 for providing healthcare to it's residents.
It's all about what standard of living or what quality of life people choose.
