One of the strongest opponents of government intervention in reforming the health care industry is Ron Paul — a Republican congressman from Texas. He's known to some as "Dr. No" for his opposition to tax hikes and refusal to vote for spending bills. He's a doctor by training — an OB-GYN — and he's written a new book called End the Fed — as in the Federal Reserve. He tells Weekend All Things Considered host Guy Raz that he doesn't believe health care is a…

Its all smoke and mirrors. Spend more money on a poor plan of action that the US cant afford, great. How many times are the citizens going to allow this to happen under the name of "reform"? Its a coup for the insurance world because the pool of customers will increase. We wont have a choice but to buy insurance or get…
