Romney's speech at a medical school in Iowa yesterday provided an opportunity for voters to better understand his positions on health care policy. (click here for AP story)

Some highlights:

• Caps on non-economic and punitive medical malpractice awards seems a good place to start
• Creation of health courts to ensure judges have knowledge about medical liability
• State implemented sanctions against attorneys or individuals who repeatedly file frivolous malpractice claims

Romney correctly points out the need for a health care system that promotes individual responsibility through the use of free market principles.

During his speech, he outlined a plan to insure all Americans within four years of implementation. (click here to read plan)

As the Republican and Democratic races heats up, people need to look at policy proposals not respond to sound bites. Health care spending will cripple our economy if we, the people, do not begin to take a more active role in the reformation of the system.

As Democrats push Hillarycare, or any other government managed system, we must all accept the truth that all government plans will lead to rationing by the government. Do we really want the government controlling access to health care?

Free market principles can save our system but the ship must be turned quickly. Romney's plan is a great example of possible reform.
