house insurance deals
Why didn’t Republicans tackle healthcare when they controlled the White House & Congress?
From 2000 to 2006 GW Bush was president and the House & Senate were majority Republican. This would have been a perfect opportunity for Republicans to implement tort reform and allow health insurance to be sold across state lines.
Instead all we got was Medicare Part D which was entirely unfunded and makes up the largest ever expansion of “socialized medicine” since the New Deal.
Simply because of the old cliche: “Don’t bite the hand that feeds you”. Today’s Republicans are not the same of the days of old; but corporatist. Many of the major outspoken pundits as well as the GOP Leaders in the US Congress find the campaign war chest filled with contributions from the Medical Industries; whose Lobbyist has reached out and touch them with a handsome reward of cash. Don’t believe me, do the research; I dare you!
