Re: TownHall.com –
5/5/2008 – “McCain is right on health
care” – Star Parker
I agree with McCain that the incentives to businesses for
providing employee health insurance should be eliminated and replaced by incentives
to the employees to acquire health insurance coverage for themselves.
However, McCain’s solution is only part of the answer to
health care funding. It fails to account for those now without employer funded
health insurance and who are unable to acquire health insurance on their own
either because of its cost or because it is unavailable to them, especially the
children of our poor.
Hopefully, someone will propose a system fusing McCain’s
private insurance for the rich, middle, and working classes with the some
reasonable health insurance for the poor. But I’m not holding my breath.
