the senator offered? an answer to the health care/ins crisis-that each family would have a $5,000 tax credit per year and they would be on their own to buy insurance. Companies would no longer get tax breaks for health care coverage. Edwards pointed out that the average cost for ins for a family is $18,0000 a year. The senator said "there would be more competition" therefor it would be cheaper. It scares me that this the only answer the repubs have for reform. Imagine if all of you out there who have a great plan with your company have it taken away, and then given a $5,000 tax credit-and be on your own? Do you think he also meant that the senators would have their benefits taken away, and have a $5,000 tax credit instead?
