Massachusetts Health Costs Balloon

(Boston, Massachusetts) As always, socialized medicine means massive unanticipated costs. In Massachusetts, the mandated health plan is like a huge vacuum cleaner sucking dollars out taxpayers' wallets.
According to recent reports, the cost of Massachusetts' health insurance mandate will rise 85 percent, or $400 million, in 2009. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney (R), meanwhile, has been on the presidential campaign trail praising the program he put into place.

According to The Boston Globe, the cost increase is largely due to an increase in the number of people signing up for state-subsidized health insurance. State and federal taxpayers are likely to shoulder the cost increase.
Mark my words, Massachusetts' premier symbol of corruption and ineptitude, The Big Dig, will be considered a bargain basement deal when compared to the dollars ultimately confiscated from the public for the state's socialized health care system.

Remember, voters, Mass. HealthCare is Mitt Romney's baby.
