BE BOLD
Another similar opportunity for reform and conservative change won’t come around for another generation, at least. Do. Not. Waste. It!
And what you implement will have very lasting and far-reaching effects on everyone, and the continued growth of the leftist nanny-state, for a couple generations.
Repeal, do not replace
Socialized medicine regardless of the “care” (Hillarycare, Romneycare, Obamacare or Trumpcare) is consolidation of power in the hands of the government.
Just repeal it and replace with... freedom. That’s the constitutional option.
Offering tax credits?
Tax credits are part of the problem in every sector. They need to be eliminated.
I like this part. Make sure your plan does this. Return control to the free market where it belongs and get government out of the insurance business.
That MUST happen before any additional, revised, reformed or extended health care programs of any description are written into law or EVEN considered!
No more throwing money at problems which Democrats insisted were needed and have been put in place at MY expense for so long. PERIOD
Get the government out.
MSAs for everyone, that work like IRAs.
Insurance across state lines.
Vouchers.
Anyone who has a “vision” of how Healthcare should be delivered will only exacerbate the problem of cost and accessability. The ony\ly reasonable soluution is for all laws regardiong medicine and Insurance to be repeales andnot replaced. Turn it entirely over to the Market. Costs will plummet. Access will expand. Quality will soar. The same goes for Public Education. The fedgov needs to separate itself entirely from the field. In all these things the FedGov has no valid role beyond the Constitutional mandate to guarantee weights and measures. Let the states interfere how they will. The best system,will become obvious as certain states let the market work and others chase out all the talent and many prospective patients by massive control.
1. Open up competition ACROSS STATE LINES. As long as a health care plan meets a states requirements, it shouldn't matter if the plan is sold and/or administered out of state or not.
2. Pre-Existing Conditions must be covered. Period. Whether or not that means creating high risk pools for affected individuals or not I don't know. It's just unacceptable that those with pre-existing conditions no matter how minor are excluded from coverage and that has to stop.
For later.
Repeal. Period!
