So do I. I don’t see any authorization whatsoever in the constitution for the feds to be involved in healthcare. Or retirement “insurance” either, for that matter. I would rather see both medicare and social security phased out and privatized.
Was shocked to hear Ron Paul admit in the debates last week that you can’t just yank these programs away from people who have depended on them for decades. Thought he’d be more in favor of getting the government out of the healthcare business asap.
Have glanced at and skimmed over Newt’s proposal. Hope it’s more in line with privatizing, incentivizing and phasing the government out where we possibly can. I know he’s committed to repeal ObamaCare. I just wish they’d replace it with... nothing. Turn it back over to the states and the people per the constitution.
Forgot the link to Newt’s healthcare proposal:
