Romney plan provides health care coverage while respecting the Consitution

Today Former Governor Mitt Romney laid out his proposal to provide health care to all Americans. Gov. Romney has crediability in this department since he provided universal health care to all the residents of his state while Governor of Massachusetts. The plan would be tailored on a state-by-state basis. Gov. Romney said this, "A one-size-fits-all national health care system is bound to fail. It ignores the sharp difference between states and it relies on Washington bureaucracy to manage." The plan would would change the way health care operates today. The government instead of paying hospitals to treat the unisured would help patients afford buying health insurance. "No more free rides," he said. "Everybody pays what they can afford." Romeny wants to make meaningful changes to how much the health care system costs by making common sense changes like reducing regulation on the insurance industry, capping malpractice damages, and helping everyone to be insured.
It is good to see a proposal that makes sense. Romeny's plan makes Constitutional sense. Instead of ingnoring the Constiution to create a massive government takeover of insurance he provides a system that allows the states to control requirements. The ideas of reducing regulation of Insurance Companies goes a long way in reducing the burdens that have been applied by Government that does nothing but drive up cost and reduce service. A common sense approach of limited government can help us to improve the health care system of the United States.
