It has generated more new jobs than any other state. And the tired "minimum level," hamburger flipper meme is just as dumb as it was 30 years ago when used on Reagan. As to the percentage of uninsured, that talking point has long ago been debunked. Massachusetts boasts an "insured" percentage of 98%, but many still have no access to care other than the ER. So, once again, coverage isn't health care, as you should know living in Britain, where GENUINE access is more restricted than ever despite "universal coverage."

Many of the new jobs are minimum level, filled by immigrants and imported by incredible corruption in favors in return for campaign kickbacks. And this is a presidential performance?
