Health care causing U.S. job loss
Sen. Deborah Stabenow (D-Mich.) says the U.S. is losing jobs as a result of the structure of health care and the inability to address costs. She says the only way to address costs is to make sure coverage is provided to everyone. She says hospitals do the right thing and treat people, but then raise rates for the employers to pay for it. She says “we have universal health insurance. It’s the most expensive, crazy structure in the world.” (0:57)
