Fred Blasts Hillary on "Hillarycare"

Fred Thompson wonders aloud why liberals think the best way to help people is to punish them. He's talking about Hillary Clinton's latest healthcare plan.

Of course, Hillary's most famous healthcare plan - the one she created back when Bill Clinton was President, also included punishment for people who didn't toe the Big Government line. That plan - which, thankfully, never became law, would have imposed a $25,000 fine on people who purchased medical care outside their cooperative. If you had a sick child in the middle of the night and went across the street to your doctor neighbor, but he wasn't in the government-designated "cooperative" to which you were assigned, both the doctor and you would have faced $25,000 fines.

For more on Fred Thompson, another good resource is my book.

Good cut at Hillary but when are we going to get specifics on what legislation he would sign if Pres?

More choices but what choices? Right now I have one, my employer and what provider they choose.

By choice does he mean rid us of the mandates and regulations that have driven us to employer based coverage versus a competitive market?

It's still early but his opponents are beginning to release more specifics for discussion which can be a two edged sword if a plan is DOA. But then again that weeds out the candidates quickly. Like McCain support following his stance on illegal immigration.
