The recent congressional efforts to ram through legislation that will impact the life and health of every single citizen in the United States is ill-conceived and downright inhumane. I find it embarrassing as a legislator to see fellow legislators ignore what is best for American citizens in the name of appeasing campaign donors or just doing something for the sake of doing something.
Enough with the games. Enough with the gimmicks. Health care is not a commodity like a car or television. We cannot include health care into our normal economic mode of profit margins and supply and demand economics. Health care is about life and death and deserves a business model unto itself.
With that in mind, I believe the only real solution to the health care crisis in America is a real, honest and practical discussion about how we can repair our health care system for decades to come. I will be introducing a resolution in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives asking Congress to take the following steps:
We can no longer afford the status quo. The price of health care is skyrocketing in America. It is unaffordable and has been unaffordable for the last 20 years and will continue to skyrocket until we take the steps necessary to stop it. No more finger pointing and passing the buck. The truth and facts that will be ascertained by this task force will reveal the countless problems with our present health care system and then provide solid evidence and factual information to develop lasting solutions. If you agree to this commonsense approach to create a truly quality health care system for all Americans at a cost comparable to all other industrialized nations of the world, then please click here to contact your senator and congressman.
Sincerely,
Rep. Eddie Day Pashinski
