No.
The comment was poking fun at McCain for his unfounded accusations that Obama is a socialist.
"I don't know what's next," Obama, the presidential candidate, said at an outdoor rally in North Carolina. "By the end of the week, he'll be accusing me of being a secret communist because I shared my toys in kindergarten. I shared my peanut butter and jelly sandwich."
Barack Obama will make health insurance affordable and accessible to all:
1.The Obama-Biden plan provides affordable, accessible health care for all Americans, builds on the existing healthcare system, and uses existing providers, doctors and plans to implement the plan.
2.Obama will lower health care costs:
The Obama plan will lower health care costs by $2,500 for a typical family by investing in health information technology, prevention and care coordination.
3.Promote public health:
Obama and Biden will require coverage of preventive services, including cancer screenings, and will increase state and local preparedness for terrorist attacks and natural disasters
I DO see your point. But you are way off base comparing Obama's plan to the current Canada health care structure.Rob Funk. I am very aware of his plan.
I ask the question again. When you take away the incentive for corporations to offer health care, then tax them out the ass, how many of them are going to continue to offer health care to their employees, at least at an affordable level?
Even if they do, how many people are going to STAY in their health plan which costs them anywhere from 80-300 per month through their employer when they can just get on da welfare plan?
Do you see my point, at all?
EVERYONE will be on the governments health care by the end of his term. Once that happens, Google (CANADA health care system). Hell, go to Canada and ask them how good they think their health care is.
I DO see your point. But you are way off base comparing Obama's plan to the current Canada health care structure.
For starters, Obama's plan encourages people to work to EARN the incentive for health care cost breaks.
Additionally, no U.S. goverment plan can compare with a full boat health plan with included dental, eye wear and life insurance, etc. offered by my being a full time employee of some corperation.
I really think that at the end of the day, this proposed plan just takes some stress off people having a tough time with hospital visit and medication costs.
