| Allow individuals to purchase health insurance and medical
care for themselves with the same tax benefits given to employers and third
parties, with any terms agreeable to themselves and the insurer. Lower
drug costs by allowing doctors to rely on drug certification by multiple
organizations, rather than only the FDA. | I support long-term solutions to address the lack of
affordable, accessible, quality, universal health care for all
Americans—prevention and doctors making medical decisions. I will
fight to enable states to negotiate prescription drug prices, and I will
not take contributions from drug and insurance companies that block real
change. | This is not a power granted to Congress. It must be regulated
at the state level. I favor a a a “fee for service” system or
Cooperatives. Money taxed and spent locally for healthcare for the poor
will be far more cost efficient. Competitive bidding with local providers
is best. |
