As Massachusetts governor, Mitt Romney
established a government-run health care program
with an individual mandate, but has since tried
to disassociate himself from it in attempt to
distinguish himself from President Obama.

be simplified to an issue of government vs.
private sector. For instance, many cry
"socialism" over Romney-care and Obama-care, but
If my hospital costs are significantly higher
because you don't carry insurance, and I am
de-facto paying for your coverage - that's
socialism
