North Carolina TURNED Blue - thank you for your support of President Barack Obama
Health care is at the top of the agenda!
Health care reform should: REDUCE COSTS, GUARANTEE CHOICE, and ASSURE QUALITY AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE FOR ALL.
More than 2/3 of Americans support a public option, yet special interests can still derail this critical piece of healthcare reform.
A PUBLIC OPTION MUST INCLUDE:
CHOICE:
Americans deserve the right to choose their own health- care. Congress must allow universal availability of a public health- care option like Medicare. Limiting choice to for-profit insurance only is the same broken healthcare system we have right now.
COMPETITION:
Capitalism thrives on competition. A public health-care option would bring new competition into the market driving lower prices and incentives for better service and care.
COMFORT:
There is no need to create something new or unfamiliar to the American people. Americans already know about for-profit insurance and they know about Medicare. We need to make a public option like Medicare available to all Americans.
