“Rudolph W. Giuliani on Tuesday called for transforming the way healthcare coverage is provided in the United States, advocating a voluntary move from the current employer-based system to one that would grant substantial tax benefits to people who buy their own insurance. The proposals by Mr. Giuliani, a Republican presidential candidate, set the stage for a contentious battle with the Democratic candidates over healthcare, a defining domestic issue this campaign season. In his speech here, he excoriated Democrats for advocating a ’socialist’ solution to solving the problem of the nation’s 44.8 million uninsured, saying the party’s candidates encouraged a ‘nanny government’ by proposing a greater government role in healthcare.” (08/01/07)
