Then they were wrong, too.
Maybe wrong, but not liberal.
Romneycare was an attempt to avoid socialized medicine, and solve the problem of “free riders.” That was what Heritage and Romney were trying to do. Because of changes made by the Democrat legislature, it is probably more expensive than planned, but I think the overruns are exaggerated by some here. I’d like to see some reliable data, not data posted by anti-Romney folks.
But, in any event, to call it “socialized medicine” is completely dishonest. All insurance and care is through the private sector. It was an attempt to solve the problem of the uninsured showing up at emergency rooms and getting care ultimately paid for by you and me. The law won’t let the hospitals turn them away.
