Obama is the second democratic presidential candidate that proposed a universal health care plan. Yet, it is not really a universal plan it is simply a proposal to lower the cost of health insurance to those who cannot afford it.
I think I would have to favor John Edwards health care plan more so than Obama's plan simply because Edward says it should be a requirement for everyone to have health insurance. This is comparable to auto insurance, no insurance no driving (well that is how it is supposed to work anyways).
I am glad to see more candidates are taking up the issue of health care. Major reform is needed and since the republicans are sitting with their thumbs up their butts it has become the responsibility of the democratic party. I hope every candidate proposes a plan for a better health care system. one million Americans without health insurance is too much let alone over 40 million.
