If we weren’t in a recession it would be time to look at eliminating a bunch of those. Maybe late next year we can look at some with an eye toward tax reform.

Reform of our health care system can be accomplished by strengthening the private insurance system, as we did in Massachusetts when I was Governor. Strip away burdensome regulations to get the cost of insurance policies down. Take some of the taxpayer money we’re now spending on free care and use it to help buy insurance for the needy.

“Strengthening the private insurance system” would be great and the reform bill does some of that. Unfortunately that doesn’t make it cheaper or force them to insure everyone.

I’m not sure what “burdensome regulations” there are, but the reform bill changes some things which should bring down costs.

We already take taxpayers dollars to help pay for the poor. But, it’s not the cheapest kind of care, so the reform bill will pay for more community health clinics, more doctors & nurses and subsidies to the poor to get regular insurance (instead of ER-care).

Why don’t you crawl back under your rock and piss on your own cornflakes!
