Sarah Palin offers informed commentary on Health Care reform

Sarah Palin gave a long, rambling answer on the Today Show when asked to explain a better alternative to Obamacare.

Said Palin:

"The plan is to allow those things that had been proposed over many years to reform a health-care system in America that certainly does need more help so that there's more competition, there's less tort reform threat, there's less trajectory of the cost increases, and those plans have been proposed over and over again. And what thwarts those plans? It's the far left. It's President Obama and his supporters who will not allow the Republicans to usher in free market, patient-centered, doctor-patient relationship links to reform health care.

This could have been corrected long ago. Now if we could get rid of dumb comments like she dumps out we would be in a better world.

how health care should be handled in America. And if you are poor, or sick, or elderly, then fuck off and die.

Care in both states is neither cheaper or better. Insurance Co are happy, but not much has trickled down to anyone else.

13. If this free market worked why can't it offer a free market solution right now to compete with ACA?
