Repulican+View+on+Health+Care

 ​ Republicans want the people to be able to choose their health care rather than making it public and run by the government.

In 2008 a Harvard Health Care study showed that 68% of Republicans believe the U.S. health care system is the best in the world compared to the 32% of Democrats that think that. 

According to ontheissues.org, these are 8 of the main views of the Republican Party on Health Care ABC for AIDs is more of a health issue in general; Republicans are already conservative about this issue. They don’t believe that the expensive drugs to help aids should be paid for using taxes if they are for the uneducated masses. The Republican Party is also conservative about embryo research and cloning. They believe in ethical scientific research but according to issues2000.org we as the Republican Party feels, “ We especially welcome and encourage a stronger emphasis on adult stem cell and cord blood stem cell research, which has already provided benefits to hundreds of patients and provides real promise for treatments to help millions of Americans” but they supported President Bush’s “comprehensive ban on human cloning and on the creation of human embryos solely for experimentation”. Another view Republicans have a strong opinion on is no assisted suicide.   Sources: [] [] [] []
