Paul Krugman of the NYT writes about the differences between Obama's and Clinton's health insurance plans, reiterating why Clinton's is better. The fact that it's mandatory, and highlighting the flaw with saying that if it becomes cheap, people will buy it voluntarily [Obama]. They won't, because even those currently eligible for FREE insurance often don't sign up. If you are uninsured or underinsured, you should make sure you know these distinctions, because without our health it doesn't matter who's president--we won't be around for it. Personally, I am very underinsured, and have huge medical bills for small problems that I can't pay as a student. You may not need your insurance today, but what about tomorrow? Your kids? Your parents? Besides, Clinton can tell us how she's going to pay for it [see HillaryClinton.com, she outlines how she will pay for EVERYTHING and is the only candidate to do so], and Obama fails to enunciate how he will pay for his plans/policies if he gets elected.
