On the recordFebruary 23, 1994
I care more for my children than you do, and I want to have control of where my child goes for health care and who gives that health care, because I care more. ... The point being that people want the individual right to choose a doctor and to choose the health care plan they want. They do not want to be thrown into a tank under several bureaucracies and be told what happens. Most of the American people, I believe, do not support that kind of health care. That is why I think we are going to wind up with a better health care plan. I look to the future, and I think we will end up with one that is a bipartisan plan that all of us can support.
