Wednesday, September 01, 2004Our opponents have a way of confusing compassion with dependency. We believe true compassion encourages and empowers Americans to be responsible and take control of their own lives. That's what President Bush and the Republican Congress did when we made Health Savings Accounts, HSAs, the law of the land. With an HSA you can invest tax-free in a personal savings account. You can roll it over year to year or withdraw funds if you get sick without paying a penny of tax. You own it. You invest it. You grow it. You control it. It is yours. So here's the choice: Do we grow the bureaucracy and gouge you with higher taxes, as Mr. Kerry will do, or do we let the American people grow their own HSAs and own their health care, as George Bush wants to do? We've made our choice. But I'll tell you what Senator Kerry's prescription will be: Take a handful of tax increases and don't call me in the morning. ....We have a choice. John Kerry's trillion dollar government-run plan will place your health care in the hands of others far away. President Bush's plan is patient-centered, which is the only sure prescription for superior care. Mr. Kerry will empower those who tax you. President Bush will empower those who cure you. posted by Sydney on 9/01/2004 09:29:00 PM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
