Constituent: I want to know who serves cancer care to people with preexisting conditions who are uninsurable in a private marketplace because they're interested in profits.
Dan Webster (R-Koch Industries): Thank you for that question and I’ll answer it....first of all, that I believe there is a need to have preexisting conditions covered. I’ve said that. So I’m not trying to eliminate that at all, and that would be the answer to your question. All I’m saying is, left to the community and the states and having partnerships will free us from this. We can’t afford it. We can either do it on borrowed money and run our country into the ground and then no one gets coverage because we won’t have a country.
What we can't afford is Republicans. If these people don't stop deliberately destroying the tax base by cutting or eliminating taxes for the super rich and the corporations, we won't have a country. If they don't stop outsourcing and exporting the middle class to help their CEO constituency, we won't have a country. If they keep lying and cheating to get the nation stuck in trillion dollar wars, we won't have a country. Providing access to affordable heath care doesn't threaten the United States. GOP public policy does. That's what the evidence shows.
