Society is now less convinced of the absolute accuracy of the criminal justice system.
We've got people that are paying premiums of $1,000 a month out there, and then they've got a deductible of $1,000. If you're making $40,000, $50,000, $60,000 out there and you've got an Obamacare plan, by and large you've got an insurance card, but you don't have any care because you can't afford the deductible.

All of my political career, I've fought for the taxpayers.
I know as well as anyone that the American people want to know that their hard-earned dollars are being spent wisely by government officials.
I have spent 40 years both as a doctor and public servant putting people first.
Somebody's going to pay for health coverage for the American people, and the question is, how do you do that?
I say that Medicaid isn't the only vehicle to be able to purchase coverage or be able to have coverage.
