Jackson Challenger Hayes Rejects Public Option

"We must not cede to the public option. It will be the worse mistake our country can make. It will forever hand over control of our health care system to Washington, D.C.," says Rev. Hayes. "We've seen this B-movie before. Need I say Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. These budgets continue to increase and not decrease. Nancy Pelosi in charge of my health is like the next sequel of A Nightmare on Elm Street. Please wake me up before it is too late."

Hayes did not offer any figures to justify the latter statement regarding bondholders.
Hayes is challenging incumbent Congressman Jesse Jackson, Jr.
