gracheeha"I аm fundamentally a deregulator,"- с гордостью говорит о себе МакКейн и, заметим, не врёт! Вся его сенатская карьера это подтверждает. Первые 45 лет жизни у Джонни был папа, который улаживал все неприятности. После скоропостижной смерти отца, какое-то время его продвигал тесть. Где-то за 50 МакКейн обнаружил, что "невидимая рука рынка" тоже его хорошо поддерживает в лице всяких лоббистов.
И в эти невидимые руки он собирается вручить здоровье американцев:
A study coming out Tuesday from scholars at Columbia, Harvard, Purdue and Michigan projects that 20 million Americans who have employment-based health insurance would lose it under the McCain plan. “The McCain plan will force millions of Americans into the weakest segment of the private insurance system — the nongroup market — where cost-sharing is high, covered services are limited and people will lose access to benefits they have now.”
The whole idea of the McCain plan is to get families out of employer-paid health coverage and into the health insurance marketplace, where naked competition is supposed to take care of all ills. (We’re seeing in the Bear Stearns, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch fiascos just how well the unfettered marketplace has been working.)
In a refrain we’ve heard many times in recent years, Mr. McCain said he is committed to ridding the market of these “needless and costly” insurance regulations.
