Really?
Like at all?
I must've been raised completely differently than you... or have a heart or something.. I can't see how a human being doesn't think that healthcare could be a right. I just don't. Any way I look at it, my brain pleads with me a million and one reasons why it IS a right... and should be a right.

No, you just do not have a clue as to what is a "right." You think driving is a right?

The people of Massachusetts have spoken. A very blue state, nonetheless.

That is high for a presidential election. I would only expect a turnout like that if the election was for a tax increase.
