Doctors cannot afford to provide care at the rate of reimbursement that Medicare insists that they accept.

We need to do things better, but in a way that makes sense.

We have to honor our commitments to today's beneficiaries, but we can't solve the growing deficit and debt problems unless we are smart, courageous, and sensible in planning for future.

The government would be making decisions about what type of care is given, what procedures can be performed, and the kind of medications prescribed. It would be a very profound change from the ideal to which we aspire.

I like going to rifle and pistol clubs and joining them in target shooting. I also share the same respect for individual initiative and love of family.

If we can return to a government that the Founders, in their wisdom, envisioned for us, we can return to a government that will allow our economy to thrive again, and our people to live in liberty.
