[QUOTE="oldngray, post: 1237656, member: 45230"] Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker wants to give people in his state a way around ObamaCare’s problems. He is floating a proposal that would still channel federal subsidies to Wisconsin’s poor and uninsured, but his plan would allow them to purchase coverage directly from the insurer and sidestep the on-line “exchange” created by the Affordable Care Act. Still, before it goes into effect, Walker’s idea would need the blessing of the Obama administration. “If they don't approve this, this is ultimately exposing that this isn't really about access and this isn't about affordability,” says Walker. “It's about government playing a heavier hand in these kinds of decisions.” Regardless of support, his idea stands in the face of President Obama’s claim that, when it comes to health care, Republicans complain but don’t offer solutions.
