ok Obama's health care plan sounds good to me.
keep your plan if you like it, govt will work w employers to lessen price ~ by 2500 a year. invest in prevention. + better computer records, so not dependent on the info you give in repeated forms.
if you do not like your plan, or do not have health care, he will make avail the same plan given to federal employees eg Congress.
*but* I did not hear an answer to the qstn, do you support treating healthcare as a commodity?

not hearing McCain speak to that qstn specifically, either. his answer does seem even more overtly to talk about healthcare as a commodity, a thing we buy ("we are able to cross state lines to buy other things"). upshot, I guess, is that neither of them is going to de-commodify healthcare. which, ok, that would be awfully big and maybe impossible.

discussion qstn: Obama more assertive: health care should be a right. example of his mother.
where McCain said warily that it is a responsibility in certain regard.

Obama answering McCain re govt mandates. yes, going to require you provide children w health insurance. but otherwise, not a mandate - rather, will give tax break to employers for providing insurance. ok so reward for providing, not punishment for not (not requiring you to).

uh oh. Obama is going to have to respect time limits. or look bad, scolded by Brokaw.

and as in previous debate, I'd rather not hear the word 'fundamental' used so often.
ok I guess saying "fundamental difference" is okay, but could say "basic difference" or "key difference" or "important difference" or "difference of great consequence" or "stark difference".
