186. Hillary's plan hasn't very many specifics to it
The cutoff line could be such that while the poor will be covered, the middle class will be screwed. In fact looking at Hillary's plan, this looks like a certainty. Like I also said, it will also encourage employers to drop health insurance as a benefit, again screwing the middle class. Furthermore, Hillary has speculated that having insurance would be a prerequisite for getting a job. And finally, part of this plan includes a nice hefty payoff to the insurance industry with our tax dollars

This is not a good plan, this is nothing more than the way that Hillary is going to pay back her corporate masters in the insurance agency. The only active candidate getting more insurance money is Mitt, which means that Hillary has a lot of favors to pay back.

I'm not impressed with Obama's plan either, but I think that mandating health insurance for all is going to wind up screwing us all.
