He says keep government out of providing health care.

I can nitpick a number of these points, but in fairness it's the best plan I've seen. The key things are there. The secret to reforming health care is to expose prices and let them operate. People need to know what a service costs, and they must have an incentive for making reasonable choices. That is missing now and it's why health care is out of control, and was even before Obamacare.

Yes, and then he says, "The poor get some version of government-run healthcare."

I don't think all his ideas are bad, by any means, but what he's NOT doing is getting government out of either health insurance or medical care. He's just using government in a different way.

"Getting government out" would be private pay, private insurance, or private charity, period.
