You do that now if you have health insurance. You are paying for you and those in your network.

Just a point. I have issues with some of McCains points...but I can live with it.

The only reason I don't like McCain is his immigration policy. He is really a good candidate on a lot of things...I just don't understand the illegal immigrant policy...it makes no sense to me!

That depends on how much you are using your health insurance.

Yes, it is still insurance. You are betting you will have to use it and the insurance company is betting you will not. Thing is, I will be paying more out of my pocket for my private insurance then the person getting federally funded health coverage will be. Also, at least with my private insurance, that means either me or my spouse is working and more then likely, those in my network are working also. Can you guarantee me that everybody or even the majority under federally funded health care will have a working family member in the house?
