Cruz: Let’s Use Warren Buffett’s Taxes to Subsidize Health Care for the Sick

‘I’d much rather use direct taxpayer funds’

RUSH EXCERPT:


CRUZ: "Here’s what Obamacare does. It takes tens of millions of young healthy people and it jacks up their premiums, it doubles or triples their premiums, and takes all that extra money not for them but uses it to cross-subsidize people who are sick. I don’t think that’s fair. I don’t think that makes sense. I’d much rather use direct taxpayer funds. Let’s use Warren Buffett’s taxes and not some 30-year-old who’s struggling and just beginning her career. Don’t double her premiums to cross-subsidize other people. That’s what Obamacare does. It’s wildly unfair."
