Leave it to Bernie Sanders to sum it all up nicely.
Interesting stuff. Possible cuts to Medicaid and Medicare. Block grants to states to replace Medicaid that could likely eliminate federal provisions to ensure coverage to all who qualify. Allowing the private sector considerable control over deciding what constitutes "insurance".
And nothing to control costs for private insurance. Do I sense a theme?
Rep. Tom Price (R-Ga.), President-elect Donald Trump’s choice to head the Department of Health and Human Services and one of Congress’s most vehement critics of the Affordable Care Act, told senators on Wednesday that “it is absolutely imperative” for the government to ensure that all Americans “have the opportunity to gain access” to insurance coverage — a more modest goal than the incoming president has set forth in recent days.
Leave it to Bernie Sanders to sum it all up nicely.
“I have access to buying a $10 million home,” Mr. Sanders said. “I don’t have the money to do that.”
