On the recordMarch 16, 1994
Listen to this. In the community health center, they pay according to a sliding scale. For the insurance they would pay on their own, unless they were low income, and then they have vouchers to help subsidize the cost. So we provide universal access to affordable care for all Americans. Read our stuff. Read our stuff. But we don't have health alliances that will export jobs from my State. We don't have mandates on small business that will retard the growth of the very good venture capital, little companies, that our future as a nation depends on. And we don't go to global budgets and price setting and state budgets.
