Independent's Christopher Briggs makes the case against Obamacare...
Independent Institute’s Christopher Briggs to Appear on Laura Ingraham’s The Ingraham Angle Tonight:
“Obamacare harmed my child and kept her from needed cancer care.”
Independent’s own Christopher Briggs is scheduled to appear on The Ingraham Angle on the Fox News Channel tonight, Tuesday, April 5th at 7pm Pacific Time (10pm Eastern). Briggs will discuss his testimony last Tuesday before the House Committee on Oversight and Reform, in their hearing on “Examining Pathways to Universal Health Coverage.” Briggs, the lone patient-advocate witness against a single-payer government insurance scheme, testified how his young daughter was twice denied coverage for cancer under the Affordable Care Act.
Briggs is expected to be featured during the show’s opening segment.
“The most serious Obamacare problem we faced was not high prices—as terrifying as those were,” Briggs told the Committee. “The most serious problem we faced was what those high prices mean in any government-controlled enterprise—that we’re on the path to scarcity. Which we found out when our daughter was twice denied coverage for cancer under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).”
“But single payer,” continued Briggs, “won’t fix the problem. And here’s why. Bad ideas don’t get better just because you make them bigger. They get worse.”
