Given all of the excitement of the Presidential Primaries nearing a close, I set out to educate myself on the current stance on major issues of the final three Presidential hopefuls. There are those topics that are heated and very publicly debated and then there are those that quietly loom in the wings waiting for their opportunity to emerge. One of those in the wings is healthcare. As I reviewed the candidates ideas on the subject of healthcare, I was both encouraged and at the same time scared to death.
I am seeking the opinions of you, my friends in the employee benefits arena. How does it make you feel to know that:
- McCain proposes the elimination of tax favored employer insurance?
- Clinton would like to mandate that all Americans have healthcare?
- Obama wants employers to provide coverage or contribute to a new public plan?
Any thoughts or ideas on these subjects?

I appreciate anything you did listed here. I favor the area where you mention you are doing this to present back but yet I might imagine through all the reviews this is performing for you as well.
