Question of the Day

Obamacare is almost an exact duplicate of the model for health insurance used in Maine, except without the individual mandate.

Maine prohibits health insurance companies from denying coverage based on pre-existing medical conditions.

Maine requires (both) health insurance carriers to use a community rating model.

Maine has some of the highest rates in the country for individual health insurance.

Given all this, why does Maine want to opt out of Obamacrap, and why were they granted a waiver?
