GOP Rep.: Health Care Co-Ops Would Lead To Public Option

The Hill: Rep. Scott Garrett (R-N.J.), echoing GOP talking points that the public option would inevitably lead to a single-payer system, said that establishing healthcare cooperatives would eventually lead to the public option, and so on.

"I don't really see how that changes the playing field any," Garrett said during an appearance on CNBC when asked about the prospects for co-ops. "The cooperatives would be one step to get us to this bill, and then this bill would get us to the single-payer system."
