McCain says goodbye Employee healthcare w/video

Thu May 01, 2008 at 08:41:12 PM PDT

I had remembered watching CNN one morning and there was a man from Fortune Magazine talking about McCain's healthcare plan.  I didn't record it at the time, but he excitely talked about McCain's health care plan.

I remember i was shocked.  "McCain will let companies get rid of their employee healthcare plans and then they will pass on the savings to the employees in the form of increased wages" (yeah, right i thought).  Employees would then, of course, set up Healthcare Savings Acct.#s with the extra money (sure they would...)

Anyway i searched today to try to find it on youtube.  There is was saved by the someone who had a Ohio Republican party banner on their videos.  Here is just a portion of the show where a writer at Fortune magazine was interviewed on McCain's plan.  Watch it and see if it scares you like it did me.  He explains McCain's plan at about 1:00 min.
