Part of Romney’s proposal is to re-direct the federal money which is currently used to reimburse hospitals for treating people without insurance to help low-income people but health care insurance. According to him, redirecting the federal money can be very helpful to the people as this will mean that all people will not be able to afford health care insurance.
