I think you read a different article from the rest of us. Nowhere did I read Ms. Krielkamp disparage Maine. She merely astounded at how high a percentage the health care industry contributes to the overall workforce of the great state of Maine, and how that seems to be the norm across the country. ?

Glad to be told the context you give to my remark. I wasn’t denigrating Maine folks BTW. Was just shocked at how many people in the state are employed in some facet of health care. Then, when I looked further, found that it’s pretty much the same way all over the country. Maine does not stand out that way. As for the poverty of its citizens, I wonder if perhaps they actually hold the keys to the kingdom, having learned how to live below money as far as possible. To me, these are the mentors we need during this time when those who depend upon outside sources for everything are going to have a rude awakening.

Maine provided the best care to those who cannot afford insurance or card; it is a very poor state. I have a lot of family there; some of them still do not have indoor plumbing. Frankly, outside the urban and resort areas you could be living in the 1800s. Many still make their living from subsistence farming. Virtually the only jobs outside of farming are minimum-wage franchises. Fast food is the main diet of many, and despite efforts by “individuals”’whom you seem to value so bigjlly, without a collective state responsibility—and this includes Republicans, by the way, who hold equal or greater state power than Democrats, many people would starve or perish from very greets or health conditions. A number of my family owe their lives to acute and emergency care at. O cost no questions asked no shaming no righteousness.
