When I go back to Texas, I travel the state, and I see people all the time who come up to me, men and women across Texas, and they grab me by the shoulder, and they're afraid. They say, 'Ted, you know...
I don't think it's government's job to find health care for people. I think it's the individual's job to find health care.
