I am an older Independent and am not at all for Senator McCain's program. It is very similar to a proposal that President Bush was running on his campaign platform back in 2000, that never went anywhere.
Having talked extensively with some professionals in the Insurance industry, they tell me that McCain's plan is very deceiving and convoluted.

To further my suspicions about his plan, today in the WSJ, it is explained by his campaign that one way he plans to pay for his health tax credit plan is to also cut Federal programs such as Medicare by some $1.3 Trillion dollars….
I am not at the point where I would invoke Medicare Benefits but I have family members who currently need that. There are so many seniors that need their Medicare benefits and he wants to cut them to pay for his medical plan..???….

The thing is, people that are uninsured generally didn’t apply themselves. They never tried to make something of their lives and as a result didn’t make enough money to pay for insurance in case something happened to them. When something does happen, they come whining saying how they have never had a chance. They have always have had a chance and never took it. So now the productive, tax paying members of society have to pay for someone not feeling like applying themselves.

They shouldn't. The government should run government and the individual should take responsibility for themselves. The limpy liberals want the taxes to skyrocket so the government can take care of everything, whats next government toilet paper? Why don't we have the government tell us what to do throughout our whole life, what to eat where to shop where to work, hell Castro can give us some ideas. What needs to be done is pressure on the insurance companies to make health care more affordable. Stop the malpractice suits from the filthy lawyers and the welfare rabble would keep costs down also.

She has valid concerns, as do all the people opposing the bill. But the long and short of it is, Rep. Grayson had a very good point. If you get hit by a bus, and you don’t have insurance, you have to pay all the medical expenses. If you have a job it’s not a problem, but you could lose it as a result of the accident. Then even with a payment plan, you can’t afford to pay. The hospital system then ends up footing the bill. People need to be responsible for themselves, not leave it to chance.

what does he know? all he did was take a handful of supermarkets and turned it into a multimillion dollar business, obama knows whats best for the country, he spent countless days and evenings hanging out on peoples front lawns with his megaphone and acorn buddies, without fail till people changed there minds in the name of change till he had to surrender his lawyers license before he got disbarred.
obamacare is the way to go whats a few trillion of others peoples moneys as long as we know its comming right back at us in higher taxes.

@dland95 (Sorry only needed like 40 more letters)

But for the most part, the uninsured aren’t that way by choice. And even then, they’ve been paying taxes just like everyone else.

“everyone NOW has access to healthcare”, the emergency room; is like saying, if everyone has a gun, we don’t need government intervention and force a dept of military on us.

@teknoguy2002 I do see your point about people who can’t afford it. I don’t see a reason why other people should pay for it when the uninsured can’t. That’s what charities are for.
