McCain's Lack of Health Plan

ThinkProgress talks about Elizabeth Edward's testimony to the US Senate about health care in America:

...Edwards urged the senators to “build on the successful system of employer-based coverage,” a system that covers 158 million Americans — and that Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) has promised to completely dismantle. Instead, he has proposed a paltry $5,000 tax credit for individuals to fend for themselves in the health insurance market, even though the average annual premium of an employer-based insurance policy is $12,000...


It's so nice of the main$tream media to keep these things fair and balanced for us.
