Yeah, I've just never heard someone essentially blame a state for people not having healthcare coverage. I've always assumed that decisions on who is eligible for government funded healthcare were made at the federal level. So I was struck by the accusation of Texas being "stingy" when it came to healthcare.

And I'm still pretty confident that you need a much, much more detailed analysis of WHY a state has a large percentage of residents without healthcare before you blame the state for it.
