Health Care

Health care is driven by two forces, fear and the desire for choice and control.
Fear is the fear that you cannot get the proper treatment or if you do, the fear that it will bankrupt you. Beyond fear is the desire for choice and control over your health care. Therefore I support Sustinet as the first step on the road to a basic system that can cover everybody, a system that gets the job done and removes the element of fear from the health care equation, a Walmart system if you will. For those who prefer to shop at Lord and Taylor or Nordstrom, there will always be private insurers who can provide you with your every desire in the field of health care delivery. Such care is more costly to deliver but I want to make sure that these costs are paid by those who desire the ultimate level of choice, not those whose primary motivation is fear. My opponent voted against all health care legislation that came up. He may be happy with the current mess, I am not.
