Judd Gregg: Better health care: balancing better options
June 1, 2009Judd Gregg has a great read in The Politico today about his proposal to fix health care.
One of the biggest weaknesses of our system is that since health insurance coverage typically comes with employment, people cannot take their coverage with them when they leave their jobs, or they are simply without health insurance. So I have developed a proposal that helps to unlock access to affordable health coverage by requiring insurance companies in every state to offer a low-cost health insurance policy to every person, regardless of his or her health or what job he or she has.
With this piece, Sen. Gregg shows that he is more than just a fiscal genius. Sen. Gregg outlines a well thought out solution for the current crisis that is health care. However, without a fully socialized plan one has to wonder whether or not Democrats and President Obama would embrace a common sense solution.
