Sen. Rand Paul says new GOP health care bill could be worse than Obamacare

The House GOP unveiled "The American Health Care Act" earlier this week, but not all Republicans are on board. Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul spoke with CBS News Congressional correspondent Nancy Cordes about why he thinks this new bill still goes too far.

Can't we just acknowledge that these types of entitlements will bankrupt us? For gods sake social security won't even last another 10 years.

[MrEndzo]

Repeal and don't replace, problem solved.

[kewalos]

I didn't vote for Obamacare Lite...

[cojo]

this bill is an insult, this is a bill of for and by the insurance ind. and bog farma, paul ryan needs to go, RAND PAUL IS RIGHT.

The price of healthcare is the prob... if everyone could afford to go to the doctor and pay out of their pocket and we wouldn't need insurance in the first place it's a big racket that's why they charge outrageous prices because insurance will cover it

I wish progressives would think with their brains rather than with their hearts.

COULD BE???? Of course it's worse. That's what you get when you serve the 1% and insurance company interests and ignore the rest of America's tax payers.

Rand is a rare gem. Amazing what we get from a Senator who is not elected with special interest money. The interviewer is great, BTW. Asks all the right questions.

[Davexplorer]

ah finally government is working the way it should, for the people instead of for the government and politics.

[scottengel]

Our wealthcare system is the most successful in the world.

[emmett]

Dutch system is the way to go. By Law everyone over 18 pays 110 a month fixed and this covers all your medical needs in 5 star hospitals with no waiting lists. Under 18's are free.

Where was she going at 8:30 pointing out that he said he was for repeal and replace on the same day when he clearly said he was for exactly that a few moments prior? lousy argument

[cojo]

I DID NOT VOTE FOR REPEAL I VOTED FOR REPLACE, PAUL RYAN LIED, HE NEEDS TO GO.

[cesarsosa]

We are looking at Obama care as the reason insurance is expensive. insurance was already expensive; Obamacare just made worse. The reason insurance is expensive is because medical care is expensive and the reason medical care is expensive is because of the FDA, andnother government mandates that limit competition in the market.

[LearnerChess]

Rand Paul should sue his barbar. The man is a butcher. If he can't even transact a decent agreement with someone giving him a $1 haircut, he's the wrong guy to be negotiating on behalf of the rest of us.

[fajardopros]

Only when healthcare is a constitutional universal mandate will this issue rest, and a constitutional amendment is required to do this.  After all, a healthy nation is imperative to roll the incessant wheels of progress and good life for all!
