What kind of health care plan has Obama got in mind?

katey asked:


I want to know what I am going to be paying, and if I have an employer who provides health insurance, which I pay for, would that mean I would still be taxed to death for those who don’t have Insurance? If I cancel my insurance with my Employer, will I still reep the rewards of free health care paid by Hard working tax paying people? I mean if It’s cheaper for me to let all of you pay for it, then hell why not. Whats the plan?

    obama’s health care plan would cover all children but not adults. which is a plan i totally agree with. the children should be able to rely on they’re parents to provide that but in this country there are ALOT of dead beats. i don’t want a child to suffer because of that.

    Create a video blog

    edwards chastised him in a debate over the fact that edwards and hillary actually have the only universal healthcare plan

    theres the video

    Universal meaning everyone in the usa is covered.

    in the video above, you will see edwards jumping him about his non voting and his healthcare plan that does NOT cover 100% of america.

    On obamas site, his health care plan is to work with insurance companies to help get the premiums reduced. AND he will strengthen medicare which at the rate they are borrowing from it will be depleted in 2010. google that part.

    in obamas own words, no, not everyone will be covered, but I will be making insurance companies lower the prices so everyone can afford it.

    that sounds good, but did you know 30% of low income, minimum wage, and unemployed people cant get medicare. Plus, they cant food on their table, I dont care if insurance is 20 bucks a month. they wont be insured.

    Thats what edwards and hillary were mad about with obamas plan.
