File this under the obvious and the ominous:

Hawaii's governor scraps their seven month old universal child care system because the state can't afford it. Wow, really? Here's the money line:

"People who were already able to afford health care began to stop paying for it so they could get it for free," said Dr. Kenny Fink, the administrator for Med-QUEST at the Department of Human Services. "I don't believe that was the intent of the program."

Shocking! People stopped paying for something they could otherwise get for free?

Put this in the context of a Democratic uber-majority next year and their yearning for some kind of universal health care plan ... and a $1 trillion dollar deficit ... and people wanting to get something for free rather than paying ...
