Rick Scott Is an Odd Choice to Lead GOP’s Health-Care Reform
If the Trump administration has a domestic policy doctrine at this point, it could be described as the following practice: the appointment of industry insiders to Cabinet-level positions in order to deregulate or otherwise surgically dismantle the protections of a given department.
In this spirit comes the announcement that Florida Senator Rick Scott intends to deliver on President Trump’s promise that the GOP “will soon be known as the party of health care.” On Thursday, Trump told reporters that Scott, and fellow Republican Senators John Barrasso of Wyoming and Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, will lead the party’s push on health-care reform.
“They are going to come up with something really spectacular,” the president said.
===================================================
Rick Scott to be in charge of developing the Repubs new health care polan? ROTFLMAO!
'In the 1990s, Scott was the CEO of Columbia/HCA' a huge health care company that owned & operated hospitals & related health care facilities. They were found guilty of massive Medicare fraud & paid nearly $2B in fines & penalties. And this is one of the guys to be giving us 'spectacular healthcare'? Hold onto your wallets - and don't hold your breaths waiting for this new plan.
