Roger Marshall on Health Care |
Hamilton: I want universal access to a basic level of healthcare. I don't believe Medicare For All is going to be the thing that's going to get that done. But I think everybody in America should have a basic access.
Marshall: I think we need to look at the real problem here. The Affordable Care Act wasn't so affordable after all. Listen, it was written by big insurance companies and big hospitals, which are printing money, and that's why they're all campaigning against me. Look, the Democrats are bought and paid for by big insurance companies and big hospitals who wrote it. And again, my opponent, that would be his solution as well. And eventually, Bernie Sanders and the Democrats want this Medicare for all, which really turns into Medicaid for all, and your healthcare will be diluted as well.
The Project Vote Smart Voter Guide inferred how candidates would respond to the question, 'Health Care: Do you support repealing the 2010 Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare")?' Project Vote Smart notes, `in response to the increasing unwillingness of candidates to answer issue questions, Project Vote Smart has researched Congressional candidates` public records to determine candidates` likely responses on certain key issues. These issue positions, from the year 2016, are provided [for candidates who] refused to provide voters with positions on key issues covered by the 2016 Political Courage Test, despite repeated requests. Historically, candidates have failed to complete our test due to the advice they receive from their parties and advisors and out of fear of negative attack ads.`
The AFA inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'It is the government's responsibility to ensure everyone has health insurance'? Self-description: (American Family Association helps produce iVoterGuides): `Grounded in God; rooted in research`; they `thoroughly investigate candidates`; when they cannot `evaluate with confidence, they receive an `Insufficient` rating` (& we exclude)
