Bryan Hackbarth on Health Care

 


Obamacare is not good for this country

Obamacare is not good for this country and we are seeing major issues with it already. It needs to be completely repealed. I believe that some of the issues with high health care costs are due to the huge settlements allowed in malpractice lawsuits, to the almost monopolizing powers of the HMO's and PPO's, and sometimes we ourselves.

I believe competition across state lines should be made available on these health care plans so that every citizen can find the best and most affordable plan for their family.

I also think that everyone should share the cost of these plans; perhaps an across the board 80/20 co-insurance with a deductible from one's local insurance agent or from across state lines insurance company.
