John Edwards has asserted that if elected president of the United States he would make health insurance available to all Americans and would support a tax increase on the wealthy to help pay for the expanded health coverage.
Edwards said he will present a health plan today that would extend health insurance to the 47 million uninsured Americans, would contain health insurance costs for the middle class, and encourage more competition among health insurance carriers.
Previewing his universal health care plan, Edwards said he would expand Medicaid -- -- and a federal health insurance plan for children, to make both more widely available.
To help play for the plan, Edward would "get rid of George Bush's tax cuts for people who make more than $200,000/year."
