People of Massachuetts Doubt There Own Health Care "Reform"

Massachusetts has been ground zero for health care reform and much of what Obama is trying to foist in this country has been tried there. Of course it has not met expectations and has cost more then thought. Its gotten to the point that Democrat Deval Patrick among others has questioned the program :

Today, the current governor, Deval Patrick, a Democrat, is skeptical about the end product. Asked during a televised town hall meeting in March if he believes national healthcare legislation should be patterned after the Massachusetts plan, he said, “I don’t know. I had real misgivings about it as a candidate. . . . I’m proud of it, but I don’t know if it’s a model for the nation.’’

And the people of the state have hardly been impressed:

Twenty-six percent (26%) of Massachusetts voters say their state’s health care reform effort has been a success. A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in the state finds that 37% say the reform effort has been a failure, while another 37% are not sure.

Only 10% of Bay State voters say the quality of health care has gotten better as a result of the reform plan while 29% say it has gotten worse. Most (53%) say the quality of care has not changed. As for cost, 21% say the reform has made health care more affordable in Massachusetts. Twenty-seven percent (27%) say health care is now less affordable while 44% see no change.

More expensive and less successfully, and why do want this for the whole country again?
