I'm with you. Now, I still don't get how his plan work. It seems that he'll delegate the health care plan to the states, rather than one national system, and have a lengthy discussion with each state about what's best for them. The states will then carry out the program with some help from the national administration. Am I right?
The question remains: how is he going to pay for it?
Thx.

He’s going to raise taxes.

It is clear throughout McCains plan that individuals and families will be paying for health insurance out of their own pockets, many of his bullet points have to do with making it more affordable and more portable.
However, this doesn’t address the issue of the uninsured who may not buy it even if it is 50% the cost of today. The only way to do that is make it mandatory people HAVE insurance, but I don’t see that anywhere. Maybe it is part of “working with the states”.
