Scarborough on Health Care Bill: ‘This Is a Train Wreck Waiting to Happen’

‘They don’t know the impact it’s going to have on American lives’

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: "It’s always — it’s always pretty surprising me that they don't understand that in America already we have a guarantee for health care. You show up in an emergency room, the hospitals are required to take you in. But it is the most inefficient form of health care possible which ends up costing us all billions and billions of dollars more money than if we actually have a system that works. And this system that Republicans are trying to put in right now — forgive me for preaching here for one second — they are doing it in like 30 days. They made fun of Nancy Pelosi for saying, 'We have got to pass the bill so we know what’s in the bill' after a year and a half of debate over health care. They are doing this in 30 days. Nobody has any idea what is in this bill. It’s like the first executive order. They don’t know the impact it’s going to have on Americans' lives, they don't know the impact it's going to have on America's hospitals and it makes up one-fifth or one-sixth of America’s economy. This is a train wreck waiting to happen.”
