1. The government can set their prices to pressure insurers to lower theirs in order to remain competitive. The same end (lower prices through competition) could also be done by allowing other private companies to compete over state lines. This of course lowers costs only to customers, not to insurance companies.

4) the govt doesn't need to make a DIME. They can operate 11 trillion in the hole so no private company will be able to compete

The govt being involved in setting prices will do nothing more than drive companies out of business and more people out of jobs. No one in Washington understands what a budget is or how to come up with one, much less follow it if they had one. They will just continue to "lower prices" and operate at a loss and add that to the deficit, something that no private company has the luxury to do. That will end in total govt control of healthcare, this is just the first step.

Has anyone listened to or read Paul Ryans comments during the "healthcare summit"? Just wondering what everyones take on that was.

I've heard bits and pieces of it. I really do hope he takes more of a lead than he has to this point.

I would also like to see him step up, so far I haven't seen anyone else step up and address things the way he did.

I have yet to see anyone refute anything that he said.
