Fox to Angle: Is there anything you think health insurance companies should be forced to cover?
Angle says no. ‘America is a country of choices.’ She said she taught autistic children and she understands it’s a ‘real biomedical disorder’ and families need to see treatment.
But, she adds, ‘Forcing someone to buy something that they don’t need is not the way to solve the problem.’
Fox presses: Is there anything insurance companies should be mandated to cover?
Angle: What we have here is a choice between the free market and Americanism. We need to have choices, the free market will weed out those companies....Let the people decide where to buy their insurance. We don’t have to force anyone to buy anything.
Fox: So no insurance mandates?
She shakes her head no.
