Furthermore, this won't make much of an impact on the amount of uninsured. If you can't afford it, being able to write it off at the end of the year won't change that.

I agree, but those of us who have to buy our own coverage should at least be treated the same as those whose employers provide it, at least for tax purposes. This certainly does little to solve the healthcare problem but it does make the tax system a little more fair.
