There’s not much that really infuriates me more than people not being able to get affordable health care. Perhaps it’s because I’m not wealthy and never will be, but I don’t understand this idea of not wanting to pay a little more in taxes (when you can afford to anyway) to help others.

Massachusetts is the best state in the union

It’s true. De-criminalized pot (and I don’t even smoke), gay marriage (and I’m not even gay), near-universal health care (which I don’t even use, but am glad exists) and the like. Best place I’ve ever lived.
