Obamacare

What are your thoughts on Obamacare? ObamaCare, which was previously named the Affordable Care Act is a new healthcare reform law, which was designed to make sure that everyone in the United States has some form of healthcare. Its goal is to provide Americans with affordable health care insurance and also to curb the growth of healthcare spending in the United States. This law will have new benefits, rights, and protection for any Americans, who have experiences issues before with healthcare...Costs are to be reduced, less turn downs and mainly affordable for everyone. This means that those that do not have healthcare insurance because they could not afford it should now be able to afford these services under specific healthcare plans. It is designed to provide stability and flexibility when it comes to your own health.

On the other hand, this law has raised a lot of concerns. This is a mandatory law which means that a penalty will take effect for those who have not signed up by the deadline. A lot of people do not have healthcare coverage because they were not able to afford it. Some have been turned down for Medicaid or Medicare because of the types of jobs they had in the past. What makes one think that this will be affordable now with the way the economy is going. This to me is just another way for the government to come up. One good thing out of this new law is that Obama cares about the health and wellness of others, but it still seems all about money, because a lot of people may be paying these monthly premiums, but may never see the doctor that much and in that case, it seems that the consumer is still losing.

  1. I believe everything in today's society has pros and cons. The healthcare act is good but of coarse you won't know every detail about it. There's always a twist when it comes to anything dealing with the government.

  2. I'm not really feeling this ObamaCare... I also think it's a hidden agenda behind ObamaCare!

  3. I do not agree with this ObamaCare at all. I think it's a total rip off. Don't they know that if people could afford healthcare I'm pretty sure they would of been purchased it. What about those who do not work? Or those living on a fixed income? I don't see this being anything more than another headache for Americans. Sorry not sorry.
