Health Care Quotes On Disparities, System, Worker, System, Individual

You’re not free if you can’t start a small business because you fear losing your health care, and you’re certainly not free if a male boss or politician prevents you from making decisions about your own reproductive health.

Pete Buttigieg

I think most Americans understand that we deserve to have universal health care, as enjoyed by most citizens in most developed countries.

Pete Buttigieg

I need more personal time and, given my extensive work in health care, I want to pursue that interest further.

Steven Burd

What we have is a pay structure that, on basic wages, is higher than market rate, as a general statement. When you look at other forms of retail, whether they be food or non-food, we pay more. If you look at our health care benefits, we pay a lot more.

Steven Burd

I’m no health care expert, but you’ve got technology that constantly advances the ability to extend life and maybe improve lifestyle. That puts constant upward pressure on health care costs.

Steven Burd

You’re not free if you can’t start a small business because you fear losing your health care, and you’re certainly not free if a male boss or politician prevents you from making decisions about your own reproductive health.

Pete Buttigieg

I think most Americans understand that we deserve to have universal health care, as enjoyed by most citizens in most developed countries.

Pete Buttigieg

In our experience at Safeway, we’re confident that we can actually improve the quality of health care while taking costs down and using the savings to help finance coverage of low-income people who are clearly going to need help to pay for insurance.

Steven Burd

We’re a high-volume, low-margin business, so we decided to reinvent our own approach to health care.

Steven Burd

It’s about getting a more democratic Wales for the purpose of improving our economic performance, for improving the delivery of health care, for raising educational standards.

Ron Davies

I have young kids. The fiscal burden that will be imposed on them is going to depend primarily on whether we tackle this looming problem in our health care system – with rising costs that don’t seem, by the way, to be necessarily associated with higher quality. That is the key burden that they will face.

Peter Orszag

People don’t like it, but inevitably we need to think about both the costs and the benefits of health care. We cannot avoid the financial consequences.

Steven Levitt

If compassion is so good for us, why don’t we train our health care providers in compassion so that they can do what they’re supposed to do, which is to transform suffering?

Joan Halifax

Everyone knows about the substantive issues of concern, like federal health care, but very little is said about the process, the lack of accountability.

Justin Amash

As obesity creeps into preschools, and hypertension and type II diabetes become pediatric problems for the very first time, the case for starting preventive health care in the cradle has become too compelling to keep ignoring.

Heidi Murkoff

The United States should pursue a more robust agenda for U.S. competitiveness and innovation focused on a lower-carbon economy, including investments in education, basic research and development, infrastructure, retraining, retirement security, and universal health care.

Mona Sutphen

As Congress debates overhauling the nation’s health care system, it should not authorize a reform plan that would further our financial woes. We must avoid creating an unsustainable government program. There is no question that reform is needed, but health care can be made more affordable without massive and expensive new bureaucracies.

Erik Paulsen

It is unfortunately true that our generation and that of your parents have left you with a big mess that will now be yours to clean up: wars, budget challenges, pollution, global warming, battles of health care, natural disasters. They’re all there for you. We’re willing those to you. Are you ready?

John Morgridge

We can bring health care back to the states and bring power back to patients. I think of that commercial from 1984 when Apple took a hammer and broke the screen.

Bill Cassidy

When the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the Affordable Care Act, Sarah Palin tweeted, ‘Obama lies; freedom dies.’ She’s referring, I guess, to the freedom to go without health care when you’re sick.

Richard Trumka

We need to be discussing issues specifically to help the American people. And that would not include illegal aliens. These are people – I’m for immigration – legal immigration. I’ve been an immigration attorney. But people who have come to our country and violated laws, we should not be providing full health care services.

Joe Wilson

These are people – I’m for immigration – legal immigration. I’ve been an immigration attorney. But people who have come to our country and violated laws, we should not be providing full health care services.

Joe Wilson

We have about 360,000 employees in the VA health care system. It’s the largest health care system in the country. And the negative attention that’s been put on VA has hurt the morale of our workforce. And so what we’re trying to do is to get people to understand that we’re doing great work every day.

David Shulkin

I don’t believe that the problems in the VA are necessarily about money. When I look back over the problems of the VA over the past decade, this is fundamentally a system that hasn’t kept up with modernization in the way that the rest of health care in the private sector has.

David Shulkin

We are a system where I can tell you that nobody is doing more for behavioral health care in this country than the VA.

David Shulkin

A veteran deserves the very best health care anywhere. That means sometimes, they should go out into the private sector if something’s being done better than the VA.

David Shulkin

I won’t stop fighting to give Nevadans access to affordable health care just because my husband is a doctor, just like I won’t stop standing up for veterans because my father served in World War II.

Shelley Berkley

Every child in America deserves high-quality health care.

Nancy Johnson

All I’m asking for is the law that’s been on the books for the last 33 years, no public funding for abortion. We are both saying the same thing, pro-life, pro-choice. Let’s find the language that works for both of us so we can pass health care.

Bart Stupak

We are not voting for health care if we do not resolve this language on public funding for abortion – no public funding for abortion.

Bart Stupak

When I came to Congress, like our first panel, small business people, 64 percent of the people had health insurance. We’d buy it. Now, we’re down to about 34 percent. That’s why we have to do something on health care in this country because the cost is killing us.

Bart Stupak

Women have to be very vigilant, and demand the very best in public schools, health care and pay, those things that men and women of this state value are at risk.

Bev Perdue

President Obama is also standing up for women in North Carolina and across our country. He has helped women fight for equal pay for equal work; he has fought to guarantee that women have access to quality, affordable health care, including making sure that insurance plans cover birth control with no out-of-pocket cost.

Bev Perdue

It’s one thing to work women into your talking points. It’s another to tell them how you are going to educate their kids, how you are going to ensure they get health care, how we are going to rebuild infrastructure, how they are going to get equal pay.

Stephanie Cutter

President Obama, through health care reform, strengthened Medicare. How did he do that? Well, he found savings by cutting subsidies to insurance companies, ensuring we were rooting out waste and fraud, and he used those savings to put it back into Medicare.

Stephanie Cutter

No matter what the president or anyone tried to do on health care, they never got the headlines, because the Gulf oil spill happened. It seemed like it sucked the wind out of the whole health care debate.

Bart Stupak

I want to level the playing field for people who want to purchase health insurance as individuals, and that means eliminating the exemption for employer-sponsored health care.

Adam Hasner

I think there’s just too much comedy. Sometimes I get requests from people: ‘How do I get into comedy?’ And I always say that what we need is more people in health care. And less people in comedy.

Marshall Brickman

Make health care a right, not a privilege.

Ed Pastor

Health care should be affordable for everyone.
