I recently read “A Republican Argument for Affordable Universal Healthcare” in MedPage Today. While it is pleasing to see that some Republicans agree that universal healthcare is a laudable goal, it is disconcerting that conservative policymakers still lack a clear vision and framework for how to achieve that ideal. Fortunately, the conservative principles of private industry, personal responsibility, and limited government can be applied to health insurance. Reformers in other countries such as Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Singapore have provided clear examples of how to achieve, what I would consider to be, a Republican vision of a universal healthcare…
