I found this map from an article about expanding eligibility for Medicaid in the United States. It was from a magazine known as The New Republic, a liberal American magazine that was established in 1914. I found this map shocking as it shows how many states are not willing to expand Medicaid coverage to those who cannot afford expensive health care. The Affordable Care Act, passed by the Supreme Court in March 2010, allowed each state to decide on where they stood with expanding this form of health care insurance. By 2014, many states are against helping those who cannot afford health care and some are still considering whether or not they should. 

It is interesting to see that the Southern states are against the expansion of Medicaid whilst the majority of states in the West are willing to comply. It is shocking to see that within American society, many people do not wish to help those who are less fortunate and that many must consider the idea before doing so. This map seems to show that American society does not care for those who cannot afford certain things and are more interested in personal gain than anything else.
