LA Times - health care proposal summaries -Obama & Clinton. |
|
from today's paper (Sunday):
Obama:
- supports requiring parents to obtain coverage for children - supports requiring all employers to provide coverage or contribute to costs, except small businesses - supports subsidies for low income people
Clinton:
- supports requiring all individuals to have coverage - supports requiring large employers to provide coverage or pay into a public program - supports tax credits to working families
BOTH:
- supports public and/or private plans to allow individuals to have plans similar to those Congress has - support portability of insurance plans - support expanding Medicaid and SCHIP (state children's health insurance)

3. They both suck. And it's just wrong for Hillary to claim her plan is "universal." |
