I am delighted to discuss some issues. Industrialsize pointed to a few:
I support the Defense of Marriage Act. Her stance on repeal has not been an issue of mine.
Sen. Hillary Clinton has a plan to address the Mortgage Crisis. Obama apparently doesnt understand that the housing market is broken. Obamas band-aid fix wont fully address the problem. We need a candidate with the strength and experience to propose a moratorium and rate freeze to help Americans get back on their feet. Sen. Clintons foreclosure fund is 3 times bigger than Obamas because she understands the magnitude of the crisis. Finally, Sen. Clinton's plan addresses the needs of subprime borrowers, a population that is disproportionately low-income.
In regards to HealthCare, Sen. Clinton has a plan to get to true Universal Health Care. Obamas plan will not cover all Americans. He simply does not understand how we get to Universal Health Care. There are millions of Americans who make over $75,000 a year and can afford it but they do not purchase healthcare because they arent sick right now. These Americans do not receive preventive healthcare and end up in the emergency room costing all Americans Billions. But lets address this Massachusetts thing Obama finally got a talking point (again from Gov. Patrick after using his speeches lol) for his flawed Health Care Plan. Gov. Romney called the Big Dig the biggest Car Wash in History because any plan can waste billions of dollars if it is mismanaged. The MA healthcare plan may be too costly for 20% in Mass - again mismanagement Gov. Patrick needs to deal with.
Under the terms of the Massachusetts plan, the state government is providing free coverage to the most needy, offering subsidies for those struggling to pay the cost and has helped create discounted policies for those left to pay for coverage on their own.
Those who haven't signed up face a series of escalating fines unless they get a hardship exemption, which would come into play if someone made too much to qualify for the subsidized coverage by not enough to pay for one of the discounted policies.
Again people who refuse to do anything and cost others demonstrate a need for an affordable mandate.
Gov. Patrick goes on to disagree with Obama:
Senator Obama: "They are then worse off: They then have no health care, and are paying a fine above and beyond that."
Patrick drew the line at that comment. He said he disagreed that anyone is worse off for the institution of the plan.
"No," the governor declared. "The system as a whole is about getting insurance to everybody, but just ordering people to have insurance, without the other components, is just not going to work."
He added: "A mandate with cost controls, and the other features of our system, including the subsidies where they apply, is part of what we have here and what we're trying to make work."
Clintons plan has all the components to make it work. Obamas plan will leave people out. I support the Clinton Universal HealthCare Plan.
