Health care has been something I wrestled with long ago, and the whole spectrum from early childhood through when you are needing to look at how you are going to spend your last years, it has been cloaked behind closed doors.

That is the kind of stuff I have been appalled by from the time I took on health care reform.

Right now, for instance, the Biden Administration is saying one thing and actually doing another.

I would say be careful. Help us get best practices out there.

The Federal Government should make it easier for people to enter the health care workforce and for families to take care of their loved ones.

Unless you at least embrace what is done in all other industries, which is make it easy for people that want to buy your services know what it is going to cost...

It begs the question then, is the low-income stratum across the country being served adequately?

That sounds unaffordable.

Thank you, Chairman Casey.

No one should go broke in this country because they get sick or have a bad accident.

I've been in so many of these hearings, and my observation is that we have two constants that are part of this discussion.

The easiest thing, the chip shot for this place, ought to be to just do a budget, quit borrowing from our kids and grandkids.

Shouldn't we be attending to that?

Biden has put us out there with a budget. The only place it is publicly out there, $42 trillion in debt in 5 years, $52 trillion, in 10 years.

It is sad when you have to have the focal point being older Americans on a topic like this.

We have got to prevent it. We have got to be tough on the enablers.

Shame on us because that is doubling down on what we know is going to be a difficult thing to solve.
