re: #932 Bagua

That is not my “basic line or reasoning” even remotely.

Regarding both your financial fraud line and the health care issue, my objective would be to step up anti-fraud enforcement in a way that is measurably effective. I reduce the needless regulatory nightmare that leads to increased costs without effective results and focus on targeting fraud and abuse.

Ditto for health care. My objective would not be to deliver affordable health care to the citizens of this country, that would be an invitation for more fraud and waste. My objective would be to eliminate fraud and waste which would directly reduce the cost of health care for everyone.

Well, that’s an insane position. Medicare alone is $400 billion dollars. Let’s say fraud is 1% or 4$ billion. The enforcement oversight is a pittance. As to the point of your second sentence it’s blabidablabidablabida. What the hell does that mean?

Now to your second paragraph, which reaches new heights of inanity.

You don’t want to deliver affordable health care to the citizens of this country because of the possibility of a fractional level of waste, fraud, and abuse, despite the fact that no controls have been put in place?

Okey dokey, then! Let us all fear change!
