Political Quotes

“I have been wearing eye glasses now for about a year. I went to my ophthalmologist, a man I have known in Las Vegas for many years, to get my new glasses. As we were waiting for his staff to come, we were sitting in his office visiting, he said to me, ``Harry, you have to do something about this health care situation.'' He said, ``I am a doctor. But I am also a small businessman.'' He said, ``I have 27 employees. One of my employees recently got cancer. And I cannot get the policy rewritten. No one is willing to give me a policy. The company that I have will not rewrite it, and I am having great difficulty getting insurance for my 27 employees.'' This, Mr. President, is a story that is told and retold throughout all of business in America. People who want to provide insurance for their employees cannot provide the insurance for their employees. People will not write it, or, if they do, it is too expensive.”
