Trump going into detail with “the hippy” about health insurance, repealing Obama Deathcare.
NOT REPLACING IT WITH SINGLEPAYER.
First off; buying coverage across state lines, allowing private insurance competition. Secondly; reforming charitycare for the truly needy....allowing premiums to return to previous levels.
Great post bud!
I heard the Donald last night telling how he would dump zero care and go back to free markets where people could buy insurance basically anywhere. Once he goes international and he may, health insurance will be so cheap obacare will look far worse than it already does.
Did you notice last night after Trump listed those solutions to Obamacare, Cruz said the exact same list? This after he makes a commercial accusing Trump of being for Single Payer and Rush parroting it the day of the caucus.
I have to think talk Radio/Rush realizes Trump is not going to be buying many commercials which can cost them tens of millions.
Thanks for that report.
It is interesting about the insurance competition.
I was having a “conversation” earlier this week with a colleague who is “Progressive Leaning” as he calls himself.
The conversation was about the so called Affordable Care Act (Obamacare).
I asked him if he was aware that much of the thousands of pages of this law were written by “Big Pharma” and the “Health Care Lobby”? (I love using the Left’s terms against them (Big Tobacco/Oil, the Gun Lobby...)
He said he was aware and very against the bill. I was surprised.
I asked him if it is just possible, that dropping state medical insurance boundaries and forcing these companies to compete against each other wouldn’t have been better for us all.
Of course, he wants single payer, but he did agree that having vigorous competition would probably be a good thing but hasn’t been tried in this way ever.
Now this colleague is extremely unhappy about his taxes, because like me he is an independent training consultant. I reminded him that single payer means—not some nebulous entity that pays, but you and me—our taxes.
He had no comeback, and had to agree I was on to something. I told him, not me, Trump.
