I see signs all over the place telling Sen. Susan Collins to vote against the GOP proposed health care plan. I say the federal government needs to repeal Obamacare and get out of the health insurance business. Let the states handle their own uninsured people.
Some people demand free health care for themselves and are willing to make other people pay for it.
Make it free for everybody, but keep the federal government out of it.
Have it run by doctors and have states use money from sales taxes to pay for it, therefore making it fair to all people. Deny no citizen with or without pre-existing conditions and other things.
It’s so simple, a cave man could do it.
