Quotes About Basic

I think basic disease care access and basic access to health care is a human right. If we need a constitutional amendment to put it in the Bill of Rights, then that's what we ought to do. Nobody with a conscience would leave the victim of a shark attack to bleed while we figure out whether or not they could pay for care.

Then within that system where everybody has access, we need to incentivize prevention, both for the patient and the provider.

This is the ultimate weakness of violence: It multiplies evil and violence in the universe. It doesn’t solve any problems.
