The Republicans should reply that “no health plan is better than what your party came up with.”
Respectfully, I disagree. The GOP should articulate a set of principles and a legislative agenda, to include tort reform, tax reform, expansion of HSAs, competitiveness and innovation in the health insurance industry, and returning decision-making and responsibility to the patient and doctor.
The thorny issue will remain, however, what to do about those people who need health care but can’t afford it.
