Going to have to wait to measure the level of outrage from the left to determine if this guy is any good or not
That’ll make for some interesting local politics. I’m in Tom Price’s district, the GA 6th, Newt’s old district.
Dr. Price has had an Obamacare alternative ready to go for a long time, probably since before Obamacare.
GA FReeper ping.
I went to school with Tom. He’s a good guy.
I don’t know him but there is no mor important job in our history. I admire him for Donald’s confidence and for his gravitas. I have proposed a solution. . I think it is the only solution. It is the VA option for everyone. If you want a number in line — go Government option. Otherwise work hard and go PRIVATE FREE MARKET!! No . I do not want people dieing in the street — You select— It is there if you need it. It is as good as we fund it!!I say fund it well with salaried Doctors!! Bulk buying and a lot of love. But if you want to have your freedom— HAVE IT!!
where do these leaks come from? Cant Trump rein in his circle? It’s like the Bush years where someone/ some people were talking to the NYT almost daily spilling the beans on secret stuff.
I hope and pray this is correct...we just keep winning! :-)
Hey my old congressman!
Good to see he is moving up.
Mr. Price, an orthopedic surgeon
That’s good. He understands the needs of real doctors, not kooky woo practitioners
The NYT is truly hopeless. In the same sentence they describe Price as an orthopedic surgeon, they refer to him as MR. Price. Uhmmm...doesn’t his being a surgeon make him a DR.?
Meanwhile, congratulations to Dr. Price!
Good. The OFA has over 1000 references to “Secretary (HHS) shall. He can make short work of it.
Yet another WIN!
Sounds great...hopefully his backfill into Congress is as good as he is
Bernie is not happy with Trump’s cabinet picks, therefore I claim yet ANOTHER win.
You should read his bill. It is the textbook description of conservative free-market reform.
All conditions present to allow carriers to start writing inexpensive comprehensive coverage for all age groups, with underwriting, High risk pools...all the good stuff.
(add portability and buying across state lines)
I’ll try to find a summary of the bill.
Good guy, for a politician. I have met him many times. His Ga office is very near mine.
An Obamacare critic for Health Secretary - LOL. I can hear the heads exploding at CNN and Cox headquarters from here.
This guy is as clean as the snow so the only criticism will be his political views - perish the thought.
Solid pick. Tom Price is a doctor and also understands a balance sheet. Donald Trump is already demonstrating how a a consummate executive sets clear objectives and selects competent, proven people to accomplish them. Like Reagan did.
There are few industries with as much government meddling and abuse of citizens as healthcare. Constantly requiring more and more stupid regulations be followed. It’s almost impossible to practice. This is great!!
Price is an un-Romney type.
