According to a recent nationwide poll conducted by National Public Radio, the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation and the Harvard School of Public Health, the public supports a broad approach to make sure that everyone has private health care coverage. The poll shows 59 percent in favor and 33 percent opposed. But that’s not what happened in Massachusetts, the first state to mandate that individuals living in the state buy private insurance. The Bay State made the fine on employers for not providing health care coverage a trifling $295 per employee per year (maximum), and on top of that has been lax about collecting said fines.
