My remarks on health proposals are based on an analysis of the health schemes of Clinton and Obama, made by Johnathan Gruber, professor of health economics at MIT, and published on the editorial page of the NY Times. I published a synthesis of those findings in another thread on the primaries and debates.

Thread 108237: Clinton-Obama debate
Paul Krugman, NY Times, Feb 4, 2008.

I stick by what I said; Clinton's plan covers everybody, and as a result would be cheaper (less cost per taxpayer) than Obama's.

I am not too optimistic about the chances for health coverage in Congress even if Hillary Clinton is elected; I think Congress will continue to be closely divided.
