I read your article on DreamActivist about folks who have a social security # because of their work permit could possibly sign up for state health insurance exchanges. Do you know where we can get more info on that? I had no idea that you could receive those benefits with just a work permit social, thanks again!

Look at the requirements in the state you live. Some states just need you to have an SSN and state ID for medicare benefits.
