Quotes-start.png "...since this program was adopted in 2006, our health-care costs have in total exceeded $4 billion. The cost of Massachusetts' plan has blown a hole in the Commonwealth's budget. Just last Thursday, Gov. Deval Patrick's office announced a $294 million shortfall related to health-care costs. If not for federal Medicaid reimbursements and commitments from Washington to prop up this plan, Massachusetts would be broke." Quotes-end.png
