Healthcare reform Hillary voted against

Neal Boortz:

Karl Rove took a stab at Hillary Clinton on Sunday. He points out that Hillary's vision of healthcare reform is to "let the government do it all."

Here's a recent list from Rove, outlining all of the positive reforms Hillary has voted against ... simply because it takes power away from government and gives it to the individual.

  • She voted against providing seniors with a prescription drug benefit.
  • She voted against allowing people to save tax free for their out-of-pocket medical expenses.
  • She voted against medical liability reform so that docs are not forced out of practice by junk lawsuits.
  • She opposes leveling the playing field so that people who pay for health insurance out of their own pocket get the same tax break the big corporations get for providing health care benefits to their employees.
  • She's against allowing people to shop for health insurance across state lines like we do with auto insurance so the consumers would have more choices and there'd be competition to get your business, give you more for less.
  • She's voting for penalizing seniors who have those private health care plans through Medicare.

Take a look at the list. Think about all of those items. Every one of those reforms would have empowered the people. Every one of those reforms would have allowed people to take a bit more responsibility for their own health care. That is precisely why Hillary voted against each and every one of them.

...

As on most issues, Democrats are anti freedom control freaks. They don't trust the market and they keep pushing things to make the market not work.
