Do other states have similar expressions like Massachusetts-Taxachusetts?
"It is not a typical Massachusetts-Taxachusetts, oh-just-crazy-liberal plan," said Stuart H. Altman, a professor of health policy at Brandeis University. "It isn't that at all. It is a pretty moderate approach, and that's what's impressive about it. It tried to borrow and blend a lot of different pieces."

No, this is just ad hoc wordplay by the professor. It may have been used before, but it is not in the permanent lexicon.
