Reform Key To Limiting What Folks Spend On Healthcare Says Minnesota Democrat
Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) says Tuesday that she "always tell[s] people three numbers" that she got from Sen. Cardin: six, 12 and 24. Klobuchar explains that “the average American spent $6,000 on their health care just ten years ago. Now the average American family is spending $12,000, and in ten years from now, without any bending of the cost curve, they will be spending $24,000 a year.” (0:31)
