Tom Haney Healthcare Ronald Reagan Speaks Out Against Socialized Medicine VIDEO


The healthcare debate is a complex issue, but can be broken down into three sections: the Medicare insolvency crisis, increasing healthcare expenditures (demand), and the problem of uninsured and underinsured patients.
Tom Haney
Personally, when one views legislative and judicial policies over the last twenty to forty years, I believe that the healthcare crisis has been the product of “invasive” government. “Invasive” proponents have yet to point to a country with any type of healthcare that comes even close to being as effective, efficient, and even universal as the United States.
Cancer cure rates for the top 5 cancers in the United States are roughly 40% higher than the United Kingdom. Europe cannot even afford a two-view mammogram for women. 90% of the women in the world do not even have access to C-sections. It is time for “invasive” proponents to realize that the “right” of healthcare is not a right as demonstrated by every other country in the world. It is time for “invasive” proponents to realize the failure of “consequences have ideas” policy after policy.

America must go back to what has made her great. Free market principles instead of regulated protection and price fixing should rule the day. Ideas that empower the people with responsibility rather than a yoke of dependence should be instituted. Responsible patients and doctors should be rewarded not penalized. Crooked attorneys should not be rewarded at the expense of all. Government should stop ignoring its role in enforcing laws to prevent defrauding of pharmaceutical companies and insurance beneficiaries and providers.

I support comprehensive tort reform. I support comprehensive insurance reform, including lifting interstate competition barriers to stimulate competition. I support health savings accounts to encourage personal responsibility and healthcare choice. I support Medicare reform that removes recent expansion of non-medical care. These are just some of the solutions based on principle that will help expand care, reduce costs, and keep American jobs at home.
