PRI's Lee Hoskins was featured on MSNBC's Closing Bell in response to the Federal Reserve's latest policy decision to keep interest rates as they are for an extended period of time. According to Dr. Hoskins, "The Federal Reserve should shift to a program of normalizing interest rates and stick to the one thing they can control which is inflation."

“The primary concern should be whether care is medically effective. Doctors and patients should be in charge about health care, not government.  Various governmental agencies are making decisions about whether these drugs are cost-effective, not medically effective and these decisions are destroying the American spirit.”  

“The whole issue is that people need to take control of their lives, people need to not think of health care as an entitlement, they need to get health insurance, and you know it is possible. When you break down that 50.7 million Americans who don't have insurance at one particular point in time, 17 million of them are people earning over $50,000 a year, two-thirds are young people, they don't want to spend $500 a month on insurance.”
