In Florida, Gov. Crist is leaving it up to President Obama to decide how he wants to distribute insurance to those who cannot meet the requirement to get health insurance because of prior conditions such as cancer. Crist commented in an interview on the financial funding of the health care reform in Florida by saying that he agrees with Obamas push for providing health care to all the Americans, but feels that Florida is not in the position to release new plans for Florida health care. As far as how much Obama has decided to give to Florida for health insurance is about 350 million dollars out of the 5 billion he is divvying among the 50 states; this is based upon the population and actual need for health insurance in that specific state. Crist is left with the decision in Florida to either say he will have a plan with the money that is given from Obama or not. It is great that Obama is pushing to have health insurance provided for everyone in American, especially Florida, but why do other Americans have to pay a higher tax on it? Will this 350 million dollars, what should he prioritize as most important for health care? Will he even use it properly? These might be some of the things Crist will have to think about when making his decision. He has to think of the people in Florida, and what is right to do in order to provide health insurance in Florida for those who do not have it.
