The Washington Examiner: on Health Care


Billy Long: Notion of mandates straight out of the communist handbook

In an attempt to continue to politicize the COVID-19 pandemic, the Biden administration wants to mandate that all federal employees, workers at entities that receive federal funding, and workers at any private businesses with over 100 employees take the vaccine. His administration wants to control your life and impose government regulations on your personal freedoms. This is a notion straight out of the communist handbook. Receiving the vaccine should always remain a personal choice.

Duf Sundheim: Some aspects of ObamaCare ok, but rest is a boondoggle

Sundheim supports the popular components of ObamaCare, such as forcing insurers to provide coverage to Americans with pre-existing medical conditions, but otherwise thinks the law is a boondoggle that needs major surgery.

Steve Mnuchin: Repeal ObamaCare individual mandate for middle class tax cut

Mnuchin hit back at claims repealing ObamaCare's individual mandate was being used as a bargaining chip in tax reform negotiations between congressional Republicans. "The president thinks we should get rid of it, I think we should get rid of it," Mnuchin told "Fox News Sunday."

"I think right now our objective is to keep [the Senate's repeal of the mandate] in. It provides a big tax cut for the middle class, it gets rid of the penalty, but we are going to work with the Senate as we go through this."
