Mr. Romney, How Does Your Proposal Guarantee Health Insurance For All?

Flip-flopping presidential candidate Mitt Romney has introduced his plan to reform the health care system. His new proposal is in stark contrast to his Massachusetts plan.
Romney would give Americans a tax break to buy their own health plans, regardless of whether their employers offered coverage.

I’m OK with that but what do people that are uninsurable do? I don’t see provisions made for people that are willing to take on the obligation of individual health insurance but can’t because of pre-existing conditions.

Can You Handle The Truth???

I learned of an objective, fact-oriented website this week that separates fact-from-fiction in the health care debate. The website’s address is:
www.factcheck.org.

This site doesn’t appear to be leaning in any political direction. Just the truth, whether it favors conservatives or liberals, pro or anti-reformists, etc.

The site sets straight, many of the lies that both sides of the health reform debate are spreading. I highly recommend it for those who can handle the truth.
