> Sure, but how well are those without income supported in those states?
No income at all generally means you're eligible for either Medicaid or Medicare, or COBRA coverage if you're recently unemployed.
The worst off are people who have low paying jobs- they make too much for benefits (typically 138% or more of the federal poverty level) but not enough to afford employer-sponsored or private-market insurance.
