"Today we should be focusing on parts of health insurance--the insurance market that are working for Americans."

"As a physician, I do not believe that the government should interfere or hinder a doctor's ability to act in the best interest of his or her patient."

"But this plan will lead to a massive tax increase. It will eliminate private insurance. And it will accelerate the pending bankruptcy in the already dwindling Medicare Trust Fund."

"Quite simply, the success of the employer-sponsored insurance market is not worth wiping out with single-payer health care."
