Graybeard, you are right arm. Most people would be $$$$$ ahead under McGore's plan, but it was foolish to give details about any plan that specified taxing hitherto untaxed benefits. Naturally, the dems would jump on that and use it to beat McGore over the head with it. He should have known better. I'm betting this one thing has lost him a hellova lot of votes.
Obviously, any health care plan that emerges, is going to be strained through the Congress; it won't even be recognizable with how it began. The number one provision of any plan should be that members of Congress have to live with the same exact plan.
It seems to me though, that the government had better fix the systems that are already in effect (like Medicare and SS), before they mess with anything else.
