Washington no place to run health care
Americans presently enjoy the best health care system in the world. It provides the most advanced treatments to the most people with the greatest expedition possible. The main thing wrong with it is it costs too much. The Democrats' various plans are all estimated to cost much more. And they all would give us a system of government controls on doctors, patients, hospitals and drug companies that would interfere with access to needed treatments. The proposed reforms would destroy our present health care system without fixing its main problem. This is not reform.
I do not want the government, especially this government, making any decisions about my health care.
