The House bill has a provision which would effectively dismantle Medicare.

If they are so efficient, why do they need a handout? ... Talk about a fair playing field between the Medicare and the private sector. That's hogwash, that's hogwash.

The bill doesn't make provision for checks and balances of the council.

We wanted to get our house numbers up before we could prospect effectively.

The master's tools will never dismantle the master's house.

I believe this provision of the bill does not set the bar high enough for PSC commissioners, who should be held to the highest ethical standards, ... I strongly encourage the members of the Public Service Commission -- who I know share in this belief -- to move forward with efforts to amend their code of ethics . . . to ensure that this provision of the bill is not misused.
