A decent story providing yet another facet of the current healthcare-reform debate. Shows that many state governors oppose the healthcare plans that are currently receiving the most attention in congress due to cost concerns.

Again, I agree with the governors: the current most-popular plans for healthcare reform are a recipe for fiscal disaster for our country. There are better ways to provide healthcare for all and to finance it than are currently being discussed. The CBO has issued statements to the effect that the current plans receiving the most attention will have exorbitant costs and will break our nation's economy.
