Our system of private health insurance that fails to provide coverage to so many of our citizens also contributes to the double-digit health care inflation that is making America less competitive in the global economy.
I don't think the American people want unilateral government control over the entire health-care system.
I believe in health care reform.
Temporary is all you're going to get with any kind of health care, except the health care I'm telling you about. That's eternal health care, and it's free... I've opted to go with eternal health care instead of blowing money on these insurance scheme...
The biggest public health challenge is rebuilding health systems. In other words, if you look at cholera or maternal mortality or tuberculosis in Haiti, they're major problems in Haiti, but the biggest problem is rebuilding systems.
Whatever we do, it is definitely time that we reboot the health care reform attempt. It's time to completely start over.
Obama is capable - as evidenced by his first-term success with health care reform. But mandate-building requires humility, a trait not easily associated with him.

A modern health and social care system has to be completely focussed on the needs of its users.
We have a mental health system that is dominated by political and hidden forces that keep us stagnated and unable to see real, lasting change.

Truly affordable but high-quality health care tools and services are the only means by which quality health care can be provided to all.
If we're going to be able to provide access to quality, affordable health care to every American - we need to have the trained health care professionals inside hospitals to provide that care.
Successful health reform must not just make health insurance affordable, affordable health insurance has to make health care affordable.
The health care bill is nothing about health care- it's about controlling the people.
If the government controls your health care, the government controls you. Obamacare was never about health care. It was about government power, dependency, and control.
Whole Foods has a good health care plan.
While Free Choice Vouchers didn't fulfill my vision of a health care system in which every American would be empowered to hire and fire their insurance company, they were a foothold for choice and competition and a safety valve for Americans whose em...
You cannot drive a system that's going to be aiming at preventing illness if everyone is not in it. The whole gaming of health insurance and health care in America is based on that fundamental principle: insure people who aren't sick and you don't ha...
