Bay State reacts with cheers, anger

This article is about the effects of the health care bill in our state. Our state seems to be split with reactions for yesterdays historical vote on health care. The chief executive of Tufts Health Plan James Roosevelt Jr. said “This is really a historic moment in terms of giving people in the rest of the United States the protections that health plan members have in Massachusetts,’’but others like Charles D. Baker Jr., a former chief executive of Harvard Pilgrim Health Care said, "“This is a bad deal for Massachusetts, and I think it’s a bad deal for the country. I think the math in this thing is appalling. . . . We’re basically going to be dumping an onerous burden onto our children and grandchildren.’’ Both opinions are very strong and have me up in the air on my thoughts about healthcare but i thought by blogging others could see where they stand.
