We are a compassionate society.
— Tom Price
You get the choice as individuals across this land to be able to purchase the kind of coverage that's right for you and your family.
I have no idea what stocks I held in the '90s, in the 2000s, or even now.
I have spent 40 years both as a doctor and public servant putting people first.
All of my political career, I've fought for the taxpayers.
I have no feelings for the criminal. All my feelings lie with the victim.
Evolving societal values indicate that the death penalty should be abolished in its entirety.
The American people need to know that there are folks here fighting as hard as they can for individual liberty, economic freedom, appropriate national security and the fundamental moral values that have made our nation the greatest nation in the history of mankind.
There are going to be counties across this country that won't have any insurance company providing coverage.
The CBO does a great job on budget; they do a relatively poor job of what the coverage consequences of a healthcare plan are. Their ability - anybody's ability - to predict what human behavior is going to be, without looking at the entire construct, is difficult.
We need a significant amount of market stability, not for the insurance companies, but to ensure patients can get access to the care they want.
Age is the thing that correlates best to what health coverage costs.
I'm very tough on crimes where there are victims who have been physically harmed. In such cases, I do not believe in leniency.
I am convinced that, because the criminal justice system is run by humans, it is naturally subject to human error. There is no rational basis to believe that this same type of human error will not infect capital murder trials.
One person's embarrassment is another person's accountability.
Anybody that's asked, I've counseled that they not expand Medicaid eligibility. I've been critical of any expansion because you know what Washington does. It promises something for a finite period of time, and then it leaves you on the hook.
I say that Medicaid isn't the only vehicle to be able to purchase coverage or be able to have coverage.
Somebody's going to pay for health coverage for the American people, and the question is, how do you do that?
We've got people that are paying premiums of $1,000 a month out there, and then they've got a deductible of $1,000. If you're making $40,000, $50,000, $60,000 out there and you've got an Obamacare plan, by and large you've got an insurance card, but you don't have any care because you can't afford the deductible.
I know as well as anyone that the American people want to know that their hard-earned dollars are being spent wisely by government officials.
'Competent counsel' ought to require more than a human being with a law license and a pulse.
Society is now less convinced of the absolute accuracy of the criminal justice system.
I liked the give-and-take of a policy discussion in the community, with citizens. I didn't know that even took place, frankly, but I never dreamed it would be an enjoyable thing to do.
