Senator Corker:
These are words you sent me in an op-ed..."Unfortunately, I believe the Obama administration’s proposal takes us in exactly the wrong direction. It would be, in Governor Bredesen’s words, “the mother of all unfunded mandates,” sending billions in costs to already overburdened states...and, Congress’s first objective should be to do no harm." I totally agree with your assessment!
If the Obama administration is to blame for this health care debacle, and intent on moving us in the wrong direction, your work is to remove this legislation entirely from consideration. Then do the right thing and begin the reform in a step-by-step process.
One large package will never fix this issue. It will kill health care as I and the vast majority of Americans have known Health Care. I pay premiums and am happy with my service provides. We can all agree the biggest issue we all face is to ensure ALL Americans have access to Health Care. This should be where the Government's focus begins. Fix the problem for those Americans that cannot rightly and actually obtain or afford health care.
Do no harm! But, fix the problem where harm is now most prevalent! Concentrate any new legislation solely for Americans without legitimate reason for obtaining health insurance. That fix would do as you stated - no harm!
