Rick Perry rejects Obamacare exchanges
Quote:
Perry officially rejects Texas insurance exchange
"This is a federally-mandated exchange with rules dictated by Washington," Perry's letter said. "It would not be fiscally responsible to put hard-working Texans on the financial hook for an unknown amount of money to operate a system under rules that have not even been written."
"If anyone was in doubt, we in Texas have no intention to implement so-called state exchanges or to expand Medicaid under Obamacare, I will not be party to socializing healthcare and bankrupting my state in direct contradiction to our Constitution and our founding principles of limited government," Perry said in July.

We are all created equal, but there it ended. We are not all getting a fair share of anything. Our government doesn't give us anything free. Everything they do for us costs someone or something every time. But, never equally.
