I don't think much of Bradley concepts.

Bradley hopes to win Republican support for universal coverage in exchange for Dems agreeing to throw malpractice lawyers under the bus. The point is - if the government healthcare passes, the malpractice lawyers would be in trouble anyway -- there is no way a government healthcare system would pay to support our huge medico-legal industry. They would cut it down big time. Ergo, Bradley wants Reps to sell out for, practically speaking, nothing... For something which would happen in due course anyway.

All Americans already have access to good health care. The big problem is that many Americans seem to want everything for free. There IS no free lunch. Nor should there be. Poor Americans already have access to Medicaid. Everyone else needs to make decisions about what is important to them...Insurance to take care of catastrophic medical problems, or the next new car and/or vacation.... Choices. Unfortunately, many people think that they can take money from others without a pushback. ...guarantee all Americans adequate health care.
