This from a guy who hired 150 illegal Polish immigrants to do demolition labor for Trump Tower, paying them $5 per hour, 12 hours a day, seven days a week without overtime, and NOT providing them gloves, hard hats, or breather masks.
In a demolition job on an old building with asbestos and lead paint dust everywhere?
What does that even mean?
What it means besides the fact that he and his ilk want everybody else to patch up "his" workers for him so that they can get back to work (or bury them once they slowly die), is that he doesn't give the slightest consideration to Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution, which doesn't list providing or controlling medical care as one of its enumerated powers.
This whole thing is simply bizarre. There is only one proper conservative answer to what to do about health care, and that is to leave it up to the states.
What so many people miss is that making health care a federal responsibility means that whatever health care plan gets enacted is not constrained by budgeting realities. The states all have some form of a balanced budget requirement. Any plan they pass has to fit within a budget, because most states prohibit deficit spending.
The big trick by the left is that by making this a federal responsibility, they can be irresponsible as hell about the fiscal effect because they'll just deficit spend.
And to make matters worse on a practical level, the federal government's ability to spend endlessly on whatever health care bill they pass will encourage the jacking up of prices by providers who know the way entitlement programs work.
I'm still in awe at the alleged conservatives supporting Trump's statement about the federal government making sure (through whatever mechanism, single payer or not) that there is universal coverage. It's mind-boggling on a supposedly conservative site.
