The ups and down on the race to become pres what we must learn from the past

As the presidential election data is nearing and voters are making there final decisions on who they want to vote for, contemplating which candidate has the highest potential to take control of this country and turn it in a new direction, in changing all bad economic,military and social implications implicated by bush, and To create a new wealth flowing, prosperous and excelling America free of corporate scandal and money driven leaders who's main focus is them selves and not the American people.

Both candidates are proposing allot and promising a large change by crossing out program which they think are unnecessary and adding in new ones or providing better funding for existing programs that are working. While McCain wants to cut taxes for every one (which study have shown to be impossible ) also studies say his tax cuts would only really affect thoughs in higher tax brackets and cost an estimated $1.5 trillion putting the country even more into debt.

As for McCain's health care plan that would let people shop around for plans offered by insurers in other states would probably in the long run make it easier for younger and healthier people to shop around for affordable health insurance coverage but raise prices and lower acceptance rates for older people or people with a bad medical record, Also people who have incomes below three times the rate of poverty, the government would subsidize the cost of their premiums on a sliding scale, with the poorest getting the most help. McCain plans on putting around 15-25 billion dollars a year into his plan.

McCain's health care plan pros and cons

pro, It allows people to shop for more affordable and better suited for them health insurance.

con, many people who get there health care through work would have to find there own health insures and may end up paying more.


pro, It would help drive the country's insurances market boosting the economy

con, It could end up costing more money then expected by making people get insured causing him to pay more in subsidies for people who can not afford to pay for health insurance.

pro, people in stats that have bad health insurance would be able to look to other states for more appealing rates or coverage that they might have been denied in the past.

con, It would force states with good health insurance to raise cost and lower acceptance because of the amount of people with bad health record coming to them and the amount of healthy patients looking else where.
