If some states have health care and others do not, people will move. People move for jobs. Jobs no longer help pay health care. Pay has dropped. Not very many people can afford health care on their own.Being that the majority of the country disapproves of ObamaCare I'm not sure how you come to that conclusion. You assume that people would move to states with government funded health care, but again, in order to do that the cost of living would rise and the quality of the care probably wouldn't be that good, as evidenced in countries that have universal health care.
Hawaii and Tennessee had universal care for a time and we had RomneyCare back in MA. Nobody was flocking to those states for the health care. HI and TN ended up disabling theirs because it was too expensive and the cost of health insurance in MA has skyrocketed.
So how come people weren't storming down the doors of Hawaii, Tennessee, and Massachusetts? In fact, people have been leaving Mass.
Not true. Massachusetts' population has grown by four percent since 2000.
Massachusetts QuickFacts from the US Census Bureau
EDIT - Tennessee's population has grown by 10 percent over the same period and Hawaii's has grown by seven percent (using data from the same census tool linked above).
