Racing Ohio to the bottom

If you think Gov. Steve Beshear's goverment health insurance pep rally last month was a great example of bad timing, take a look at Ohio:

"The state wants to cover kids in families that make up to 300% of the federal poverty level. The feds have been reluctant to approve this, but the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services let a procedural deadline pass last week, essentially giving approval to Ohio's plan."

Hate to think what will happen to Kentucky if Ohio bankrupts itself before we do. I guess we will have a bunch of middle-class families moving here looking for "free" health insurance.
