The problem with this Administration’s proposals for universal health care is that it completely overlooks past experience of others:
One: The bad service the Canadians and Europeans get in terms of care and rationing.
Two: The burgeoning costs of Medicaid and Medicare.
Three: The attendant fraud in Medicaid and Medicare that now exists and is not being properly handled by government.
Four: The current shortage of doctors and providers WITHOUT adding patients.
Five: The experience of the few states that have what the Administration wants for fifty states on “guaranteed issue” and “community rating“ coverage.
Six: The need to have tort reform when compensating patients for medical malpractice, in order to reduce the costs of medical testing.
The government can do something about all those health insurance steps that would be meaningful.
