En un artículo de opinión en el Wall Street Journal, el Gobernador Daniels critica la ley de asistencia sanitaria y pide más flexibilidad para los estados.
(...) I have written to Kathleen Sebelius, secretary of Health and Services (HHS), saying that if her department wants Indiana to run its program for it, we will do so under the following conditions:
• We are given the flexibility to decide which insurers are permitted to offer their products.
• All the law's expensive benefit mandates are waived, so that our citizens aren't forced to buy benefits they don't need and have a range of choice that includes more affordable plans.
• The law's provisions discriminating against consumer-driven plans, such as health savings accounts, are waived.
• We are given the freedom to move Medicaid beneficiaries into the exchange, or to utilize new approaches to the traditional program, instead of herding hundreds of thousands more people into today's broken Medicaid system.
• Our state is reimbursed the true, full cost of the administrative burden to be imposed upon us, based on the estimate of an auditor independent of HHS.
• A trustworthy projection is commissioned, by a research organization independent of the department, of how many people are likely to wind up in the exchange, given the large incentives for employers to save money by off-loading their workers. (...)

Daniels es un buen candidato pero coincido con Antxon y con Casto es que por el momento no ha dado señales de que vaya a presentarse y solo se ha limitado a realizar declaraciones vagas que no dan detalle alguno de sus futuras intenciones.

Si sale nominado, Mitch Daniels será el candidato más anti-populista que haya visto nuestra generación. Y este artículo es un ejemplo de ello. Si puede funcionar o no tal y como están motnadas als campañas electroales hoy en día, no lo sé. Pero desde luego es una cabeza más brillante que las que estamos acostumbrados a ver en política.
