The Radical Left: Affordable Healthcare Act As A Solution

The Affordable Health Care Act, also known as “Obamacare”, is basically just Obama trying to make sure that the whole nation has insurance and if they do not have it by January 1, 2014, they will be penalized with a fine. To make insurance more affordable, many Americans are able to qualify for a subsidy that lowers the cost depending on age and income. Also, “Obamacare” made it impossible for insurers’ to discriminate, or charge higher rates, for anyone who has pre-existing conditions or for a certain gender. Medicare will also be easier to obtain due to requirement of insurance. This law was passed in the U.S. on March 23, 2010 by Congress and President Barack Obama.

In America, universal healthcare would undermine principles important to the functioning of society; specifically, it would undermine individual liberty, free enterprise and free

The article “The Ground is Shifting Under Obamacare” by Scott Rasmussen is very insightful and explains the flaws of Obamacare as a whole. I believe that Obamacare was not as successful as it should have been and he explains that it is not logical to expect everyone to want the same full coverage health care with the same expensive premiums. “The reality is that there is no one-size-fits-all solution to health insurance. Different people have different needs and preferences.” This section of the article really helped me understand what he meant, when explaining why Obamacare didn’t and never will work.

In reviewing “Political Irony” there were three keys points regarding reviews of Obamacare that left me confused as well as lost in its benefits. It appeared that the Obamacare provides an incomplete explanation of it benefits to the public. Although are some advantage to the people who has preexisting conditions and the people who had no insurance, yet it did not appear that much progress have been given to the people that could cannot afford to pay for health care. The Obamacare provides an incomplete explanation of it benefits to the public, it does not give details of the benefit of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.

The affordable care act is a United States statue signed into law by President Obama in March of 2010. It represents the most significant improvement to the U.S. healthcare system since 1965 with the addition of Medicare and Medicaid. Also known and commonly referred to as Obamacare, it was enacted to increase the affordability and quality of health insurance, diminish the rate of the uninsured by expanding public and private insurance coverage while reducing the cost of healthcare for individuals and the government. This law will require Hospitals and doctors to reconstruct financial practices along side with technologically and clinically to advance better outcomes, reduce cost and improve methods of accessibility.

The Affordable Care Act was a health care act that was established by the federal government to expand and improves access to care and curb spending through regulations and taxes. Each state could decide to participate or not. The act was adopted as law by US Fisher02 President Barrack Obama in March 2010. The goal of this act was to reform the current health care in the United States.

The Affordable Care Act “provides Americans with better health security putting in place comprehensive health insurance reforms that will; expand coverage, hold insurance companies accountable, lower health care costs, guarantee more choice, and enhance the quality of care for all Americans” states in the Affordable Care Act article. The base of the Affordable Care Act is to help the middle class or financially unstable people get cost effective insurance. This is a major benefit for millions of people especially that don’t have a stable job, young adults and many with families to support, and people who retire and can’t afford paying so much money for medical problems. So with that being said, it will be a long-term benefit for millions to

A Call for a Single Payer Universal Health Care System As the 2016 Presidential Elections draw near, the topic of much debate is that of healthcare. Some candidates vow for universal healthcare and mandate health insurance for all, while others believe that tax credits and health savings accounts will resolve the current crisis. Consequently, the nation has been divided on which plan to support and move forward with. Some fear universal health care will diminish the quality of care and lead to long waits, while others fear that health savings accounts and tax credits won’t be enough to insure all and will do little to diminish the administrative costs of the current system. Ultimately because healthcare is a basic right that should be guaranteed

A Second Look at the Affordable Care Act David E.

The second editorial states that a universal healthcare system would be too expensive and decrease the quality of care the citizens would get. This author uses logic to support their argument. The author begins to talk about the Constitution to persuade people that the universal system is "unconstitutional. " Although this editorial does include facts and logic, a lot of it is based on strong emotion.

When President Obama was elected into office in 2008, one of his promises was to reform the American Health Care System. On March 23, 2010 he succeeded by enacting the Affordable Care Act into law. According to the official Medicaid website (2015), “The Affordable Care Act is a combination of two piece of legislation titled The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and Healthcare and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010. The main goal of the Affordable Care Act is to provide American citizens with better health security by putting in place health insurance reforms that will: Expand coverage, hold insurance companies liable, lower health care cost, guarantee more choice, and enhance the quality of care for all Americans.” The Affordable

It works to make health insurance more affordable for Americans, and essentially, improve the healthcare system in the US. But, many people oppose this healthcare act because they believe that the government should not force people to get insured, and pay a penalty for not doing so. However, one has to realise that although they may not have

Health care should not be considered a political argument in America; it is a matter of basic human rights. Something that many people seem to forget is that the US is the only industrialized western nation that lacks a universal health care system. The National Health Care Disparities Report, as well as author and health care worker Nicholas Conley and Physicians for a National Health Program (PNHP), strongly suggest that the US needs a universal health care system. The most secure solution for many problems in America, such as wasted spending on a flawed non-universal health care system and 46.8 million Americans being uninsured, is to organize a national health care program in the US that covers all citizens for medical necessities.

Obama Care also known as the Affordable Care Act signed in by president Barack Obama in 2010, This was to insure that all the Americans will have free access to medical care if they got sick and it would will help reduce the growth of healthcost spending in the country, hence in economic and stability growth among the citizens of America. Right now in the USA the ObamaCare law is a permanent part of the landscape, The USA republicans said that, despite the high court decision upholding various subsidies, the law itself remains the largest and dangerous threat to health care. Although it has its own benefits, Obamacare is increasing costs for hardworking families. Republicans argue that many people have to pay higher costs or see their former policies canceled. Which is leading to poor economy and increasing of debts and deaths within the country.

It is very simple. Taxes will increase more than what they already are just so all individuals can have health care (Emanuel & Fuchs, 2005 and Healy, 2009). Best Objection: The major objection to this is also the primary point which is costs.
