Health care bill

Rep. David Price

November 3, 2009

If i told you what i think about the health care bill, it would be unprintable. First, who gave you the right to meddle in my health care? I see nowhere in the constitution that congress has the right to manage my health care, nor to take my earnings to pay for someone else's health care. I watch grossly overweight people cramming sides of bacon down their throats every day. Why do you expect me to pay for their personal choices of bad habits? Subsidized health care is like no-fault auto insurance - it encourages carelessness and raises costs. Health care and eating habits are a personal choice, and congress needs to stay out of it. If you want to help with the high cost of care, start working on the real problems, like tort reform. I'm an independent voter and I will make an informed choice, and democrats who try to paint me, and many like me as some sort of right wing kooks are reallly pissing me off. If you want guarantee that independent voters go republican, you just keep ignoring us.
