Barack Obama and Republican candidate John McCain have been going head to head on the topic of health care for months upon months now.

One thing is beginning to grow very clear though, and it is that Obama has a more clear-cut, focused plan to fix health care over the long-run.

Under the McCain health plan, health benefits are going to be taxed.  He wants to get rid of tax breaks for employer-sponsored health care, and instead give tax credits to people.

Individuals are going to be receiving $2,500 tax credits, while families willl get $5,000.

Obama has attacked this time and time again, mainly due to the fact that health insurance is usually much higher than those tax credits in terms of cost.

The Obama plan focused more on employer-based health insurance.  He wants medium and large companies to either provide health care coverage, or to pay to help give health care coverage to the uninsured.

Studies have shown that over the long run, the Obama plan appears to be far superior.

We will just have to wait for Nov. 4th to see who believes who……with the economy in the crapper…health care may not be as important as it was 6 months ago to the voter.
