What are you objecting to? What Patrick is proposing is simply a payment method, one that is used widely by Blue Cross/Blue Shield. I can understand that perhaps you're against healthcare for those who can't afford it, but that issue was decided in MA several years ago. Your link simply refers to changes aimed at cost containment. I assume you're not against cost containment.

There are a number of solutions to your problem:

1. Mass Pike west to New York and the rest of the country
2. I-91 North to Vermont and Canada
3. I-91 south to Connecticut and the rest of the country
4. I-93 North to New Hampshire
5. Rt. 146 south to Rhode Island

See ya!

The day I retired I left Massachusetts, I lived in a beautiful Towne House my last days in that state, they turned it into "low income" within 6 months it was a f-cking zoo, the familys that had lived there for years took off like they were shot out of cannons, today it is a drug infested war zone, even the cops ***** their pants when they have to drive in there.
None of the socialist do-gooders that created it live there, they all live out in Wellsley.

Funny. Ha. Ha. I am against the government, at any level, sticking its big nose into my health care. But I am all for the People's Republic of Massachusetts running its state akin to Soviet Russia in the 80's. Its called state's rights. I vote again and again against every person and idea like this, and lose. So when my ties to this state are finally severed, I'm out. Texas looks nice. Maybe Florida.

It would take longer to take 91, I think from here. I'll prolly go Rt 20 west to I 90, or to I 87, depending if I am heading S or W. But thanks for the directions!

The second the Probate court no longer holds me hostage..buh bye.

Your sole reason for chosing a place to live is politics and budgets? If so, then you're right. You'll love Texas and Florida. As long as you can live with all the other wonderful things these, er, places have to offer like the awesome weather and scenery...not to mention you'll be watching Pats games all by yourself. What's keeping you here, anyway?

Not the only reasons. I am sick of cold and winter too. And I have NO ties to the Berkshires. I might move to NH and snowbird to the keys. I thought I said what holds me. I am a non custodial parent. One who cares, and does not play 1099 games and hide from my financial responsibility to my kids (well, kid now, one has emancipated). So I get hammered by the probate court with child support. 35% of my gross for a while now its down to 30%. So I work for 27 cents on the dollar and I cannot claim them and I cannot write off the support. Further, she doesn't have to claim the income. So I am in effect in the 72% tax bracket.

That aside, if I chose to leave the state, I lose all parental legal custody rights. So I am trapped here.

If you're saying your wife can claim your children but not have to declare the support you provide, we MUST change that ASAP! That's just plain wrong no matter how you look at it.

If you support your children financially, then you should be able to claim them.

If a $100K/yr earner gives $35K to his ex for child support, then he/she damn well deserves to claim the children on his/her taxes. I'm speechless that your wife gets to not only claim your children, but doesn't have to declare the money you give her.

WRONG, WRONG, WRONG.....
