The Conservative/GOP plan would give an annual tax credit of $2,300 to each individual and $5,700 to each family that they could use to offset the cost of their health insurance. Low-income families would get extra money to buy into private insurance plans.

So don't give us this rhetoric that conservatives don't want poor people to have insurance. That's just crap, but it's what I've come to expect out here.
I don't believe the majority of American conservatives want to redistribute taxes from the rich to the poor so that poor people can buy into health insurance.

The way I described the public option is how the bills read. As I said in the post, conservatives think it is a slippery slope and that the plain language of the bill is a trojan horse.
