health care plan

For all those that say the republicans "never put out a plan of their own".  Well they do and they have.  Republican leadership just announced their Health Care Plan to challenge the one put out by Pelosi.  It is MUCH shorter....1,760 pages shorter.  Which means its most likely easier to understand and has less loopholes and LESS government intervention.  Would lovRead more
