SE WI - Paul Ryan Town Hall

[T-roy Boy]

Paul Ryan (R) is a Congrassman for SE WI who is touring his counties discussing Health Care. This guy has done his homework. I was impressed with his speach, as well as how he handled the bantering Dems in the room. He even gave his actuaries a plug.

Here is his proposal - "Patients Choice Act" : http://www.house.gov/ryan/PCA/PCAsummary15p.pdf

He explained, very well, how there is a cost shift in the current system; The tax implications to small businesses; and the three things that really need to be fixed:
1) The Uninsured
2) Price Transparency (let the providers compete)
3) Prioritizing Healthy Lifestyles and Preventing Disease

the only thing I wish he would consistently say is "Health Care" and not "Health Insurance". He used both statements interchangably.

I cannot believe how much Democrats, at least the ones in the room with me, do not understand how health care and health insurance work. They seriously think they should be free.
