Once you hit a certain amount of money in debt, it actually triggers Medicare cuts, which is going to hurt rural hospitals, not to mention the Medicaid cuts that are in there. So what I would do, I would reduce the tax cuts on the wealthiest to make it so that they're paying their fair share. I would keep in place the tax cuts on people making under 400,000 a year. So it's not like I wouldn't agree with some of the bill, but it's just on those upper ends. (02:06–02:13)
