Let’s compare Obama’s plan to the GOP health care plan:

1 – Barack Obama will make health insurance affordable and accessible to all:

The Obama-Biden plan provides affordable, accessible health care for all Americans, builds on the existing healthcare system, and uses existing providers, doctors and plans to implement the plan.

2 – Obama will lower health care costs:

The Obama plan will lower health care costs by $2,500 for a typical family by investing in health information technology, prevention and care coordination.

3 – Promote public health:

Obama and Biden will require coverage of preventive services, including cancer screenings, and will increase state and local preparedness for terrorist attacks and natural disasters.

The GOP outline:

Provides Universal Access to Health Care and Secures Entitlements:
Instead of accelerating the demise of our nation’s large entitlement programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, and creating new unsustainable entitlements, Republicans seek to provide universal access to affordable health care and to address our entitlements’ trillion dollar unfunded liabilities with common sense reforms that ensure our children and grandchildren can secure future benefits.

Hmmm… With few exceptions, it looks to me as though both plans are about the same. Furthermore, it looks to me like both plans are stupid. Blah blah blah.

Here’s Moogie’s healthcare reform plan:
1. Make illness and injury obsolete, thereby eliminating the need for medical care.

Hey, I think my plan is just as good as theirs! Now I just have to figure out how to implement it…
