Renowned Surgeon Dr. Ben Carson announced a set of guiding principles he will use as he developes a conservative plan for healthcare reform (see video):
Our health is the most personal and important thing we possess, therefore its care must be under our control.
Centralization and bureaucracy are the antithesis of personalization, and only discourage choice and innovation.
Large-scale change should not be imposed from above. Instead, we must have the freedom to choose what is best for our families and build on proven successes.
Advancing technology and innovation can reduce costs and increase efficiency but every individual must always own and control their personal medical information.
States should have maximum flexibility to design the programs that serve their citizens.
Employers and individuals purchasing health insurance must always be free to buy coverage and benefits consistent with their moral and religious beliefs.
Physicians are the backbone of our healthcare system and deserve to practice in an environment free of unnecessary, frivolous and costly lawsuits.
If you agree that better solutions are possible and that the principles expressed above are important please lend your support to Dr. Carson and sign a petition at American Legacy Pac:
America is the most innovative nation in history, and we must use that creative spirit to ensure that all Americans have the opportunity to live longer, healthier lives with less cost and more freedom.
We can do better than Obamacare, and by signing our national petition today, you and I can ensure that this message is received loud and clear by every elected official and candidate in 2014.
He’s a man who looked to see what he could contribute and is taking action. If you know his story you know he’s been honorably doing just that his whole life!
Study and learn of about his wisdom and vision here.
Dr.Carson is a refreshing voice when it comes to politics.
