Nebraska Senator Ben Sasse says the talks in Congress on health care need to look into the future. . .

And Sasse says the current system which provides big tax breaks for corporations providing health coverage doesn’t work anymore, because it leaves farmers and small business employees out.

Sasse says Congress needs to look 5-to-15 years down the road to decide what health system works for the country.
