Condoleezza Rice on Health Care

Secretary of State


Give people freedom to access their own healthcare

I believe very strongly in investing in the people’s health care. But we also believe in giving people the freedom to have their own lives and to really take the challenge of their own lives onboard. And so it shouldn’t be paternalistic [in] which people are [just] given health care. Governments need to be accountable to give people opportunity, to give people access. And those are the efforts at health care that always worked best.
