Q&A: How much cheaper is health insurance in Texas?
Question by Mary: How much cheaper is health insurance in Texas?
Does anyone have data, did Tort reform lower health insurance costs? I mean isn’t texas having a surplus or perhaps a surge of doctors since passing such law? Let’s prove to the liberals this works by using the facts for a change.
If it’s not cheaper than other states, it should have at least went down, right?
Who cares what liberals think? Conservatives do care about facts, so can you at least answer the question?
Best answer:
Answer by Ted Kennedy’s Car
Liberals don’t care about facts, if they did, they would look at Michigan, California and New Jersey and realize that unchecked liberalism is a total disaster

I thought it was Conservative who do not like facts. It distorts their world. Fox news has never reported the truth about anything. Oregon is one of the most liberal states we have. We have Health Insurance competition. There are several good company’s offering good health coverage in Oregon. That is good for Oregon we have competitive prices.

I have had the same Insurance Company for about 20 year, they have always been good to me. Texas has some of the best and famous hospitals in the world. I do know that Texas has a cap on medical malpratice law suits, as for as damages etc. It worked for Texas and Texas economy is booming.

It didn’t really effect insurance rates in texas.
What it did, was reverse the trend of doctors leaving Texas to practice in another State.
Texas doctor population had been declining for over 5 years straight.
Now the doctor population in texas is increasing again.
Which means better medical service to the citizens of Texas.

California passed “tort reform” capping pain and suffering in California more than 5 years ago. Have they lowered rates at all? Of course not! They are among the highest in the country.
But the CEO’s made record million dollar salaries there while laughing at us and dead and injured people who couldn’t sue – THANKS GUYS!
