Read Newt Gingrich’s book Trump and the American Future, especially the chapters on what the administration is doing to improve health care. Innovation and elimination of perverse incentives are key concepts.

I am not at all sure what this article is talking about but my Medicare premium has gone up every year, it has never been lowered! If we do get a cost of living raise it is taken away by raising my Medicare premium. I am a Trump-Pence supporter but this article is not true for people in Wisconsin at least, I wish it was.

Do not like one thing that Trump has said about prescriptions: He has entertained the idea that Americans should buy pills from another country if they can get cheaper. This goes against the Buy American slogan & also as we have seen with coronavirus that US is very dependent on prescriptions from foreign countries like China, and the big push should be to manufacture in the USA. Tort reform is needed in USA to keep the price down due to frivolous & costley lawsuits because one person out of zillion has a problem.
