The foundation of McCain's health care plan is to give more "choice" to individuals ...through $2500 individual $5000 family tax credit....but he does so by taking tax incentives away from employers. SO you are left with employers paying more and passing the cost on to employees....or having the "choice" to find you own plan....for $5000/year when the average cost is about $12,000/year.
The foundation of Obama's plan, at least in the short term, is to strengthen employer-based plans with tax`incentives to control premium costs passed on to employees and to create pools for employers currently not providing coverage to their employees....and to cover more kids through SCHIP.
Yep...decide for yourself which makes more sense.
