Obama positions on Iraq health care and energy policy
Barack Obama advocates withdrawing troops from Iraq at 3 000 to 5 000 a month while pursuing regional diplomacy and reconciliation. He proposes a federal cost share for expensive illnesses, aims to cut costs via prevention and IT driven reform, and would fund these changes partly by repealing tax cuts for the wealthy. He criticizes Detroit automakers for executive pay and supports incentives to cut retiree health costs and boost Earth friendly innovation, plus rural policy measures including labeling and conservation goals and a 2 billion gallon cellulosic ethanol target by 2013.
