Consequences Of Obamacare

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), or Obamacare, was authoritatively marked into law on March 23, 2010. It was created to make healthcare more lower-priced and effectively available to a more extensive scope of Americans. Under the law, individuals in the United States who do not meet all requirements for an exemption are required to acquire a minimum amount of health care coverage. Supporters of Obamacare argue that it has had some benefits since its passage, including reducing the uninsured rate, enabling a huge number of Americans to acquire health insurance through the new health insurance exchanges or Medicaid expansion. In the article “Trump Should Save Obamacare” by Nancy-Ann Deparle states that twenty-four million

be made on both sides as to the veracity and the effectiveness of the Affordable Care Act

In our society education is so often overlooked; children sometimes don’t want to go to school and almost everyone has the opportunity to get a proper education. But as shown in Parvana education in Afghanistan is controlled and oppressed, only to be taught to some members of society and even then it is only taught in a way that the Taliban sees fit. In the book Parvana, she reads letters to people who are unable to for themselves, her father gets dragged away for having a foreign education and they banned education for girls. Because of all this the Taliban have been able to control their society easily.

The Affordable Care Act otherwise known as Obamacare or the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) was signed into law in March 2010 and it has not been without its share of problems, debates and controversies. One of the main points of the debates and controversies with the PPACA has been the legality of the individual mandate. The individual mandate “requires that most Americans obtain and maintain health insurance, or an exemption, each month or pay a tax penalty” . The whole purpose of creating PPACA was to “achieve near-universal coverage and to do so through shared responsibility among government, individuals, and employers” and to be able to “improve the fairness, quality, and affordability of health insurance coverage” also to be able to “improve health-care value, quality, and efficiency while reducing wasteful spending and making the health-care system more accountable to a diverse patient population” .Those were the top three goals that were the foundation when drawing up the policies for The Affordable Care Act to develop what was hoped to be universal healthcare system for the citizens of the United States. While The Affordable Care Act does have its benefits, such as it would cover pre-existing conditions where most private insurances do not do, more people have the ability to get what they call affordable medical insurance, costs of prescriptions are lower and it even offers tax credits for those that purchase the insurance but it also

The main disadvantage of Obama Care is that it can increase the health care costs in a very short time period. It targets individuals and businesses that are going to be paying higher taxes. Taxes will be increased on those who make more than $200,000 and business owners must provide healthcare to its workers. Another issue is that insurance companies must cover sick people and this increases the cost of everyone’s insurance. The insurance premiums have increased due to insurers having to provide covered services. The employer mandate says that in 2015, businesses with over 50 full time employees must provide health coverage. In response, some businesses have cut employee hours. Obama Care focuses more on making sure people are covered than it does on addressing the cost of care in the first place. Some Medicare payments to doctors and hospitals have been limited. Medicare pays doctors more than any type of coverage and the rates have led to very complex problems that are driving the costs of healthcare to increase for everyone.

The first step into office is a definitive move for every president. The first action represents what his administration will look like for the next four years. The first step can define a legacy. Donald J. Trump has already changed the way America sees politics. He has inspired millions, despite his lack of experience against a formidable foe, Hillary Clinton, to vote for an outsider. In three short days, Trump will take the Oval Office. He arrives whilst splashing into his new career with immediate action. His first plan entails taking down, reforming, and/or repealing the Affordable Care Act, more commonly known as, Obamacare. Obamacare is one of the pride and joys of the last president,

The Affordable Care Act of 2010 expanded access to health insurance in the United States to millions of uninsured individuals. Early findings indicate that there have been significant reductions in the rate of uninsured among the poor and working age adults. Consequently, the number of adults who did not get needed health care because of cost declined as well as the number of adults who reported problems paying their medical bills. Hpwever, despite the many advances the Affordable Care Act provided towards health care reform, there are still flaws to the system.

Rather the Republican party doubted the mere existence of the Affordable Care Act would be befitting for the American people the increasing number of those now insured is undoubtedly a notion that the nation is moving in the right direction toward health care reform.

When the Affordable Care Act (ACA) was enacted on March 23rd, 2010, it transformed the lives of people all over the US, in states who expanded. It allowed families to qualify for government programs such as Medicaid, CHIP, and government subsidies, and for young adults to stay on their parent’s insurance until the age of 26. The ACA was a sign of relief and good news for all but two groups, lawful permanent residents and undocumented immigrants. In 2012, DACA recipients under the DREAM Act also became part of the groups excluded, leaving more than 6.5 million unable to access affordable care. In order to make a change, the New Mexico Rep. Michelle Lujan Grisham, from the Democratic party, introduced The Health Equity

This Chicago Tribune opinion piece examines the current Obamacare dilemma within the government and how it can possibly be fixed. Currently the Republican party is working hard to repeal Obamacare and replace it with their own health care plan, but they seem to be a long way off from constructing one. The Democrats don’t seem to like the idea of Obamacare being replaces, though they do admit that Obamacare has some theoretical “holes” in it and the bill should be mended, but not destroyed. The editor of this article believes that the Republicans and Democrats should come together to fix this problem. He then lists some possible ideas, but all ideas sent the same message that these two political parties need to put their differences aside and fix this issue or nothing will happen. I 100 percent agree with the editor. This is how politics should be handled, but it seems everyone would rather argue and stay with their ideas instead of opening their minds to new ideas.

Basic changes in the way Americans will get health coverage and what it will cost starting in 2014, when major parts of the Affordable Care Act, also known as “Obamacare”, go into effect.

I am writing in concern of the bill, H.R. 1628, and the harmful effects that it can bring unto our country. The support for the Affordable Care Act is helpful to Americans and allows people who otherwise wouldn’t have certain opportunities to be able to fix certain issues with their health or life threatening illnesses. This act also decreases the overall costs of healthcare, forces all insurance plans to maintain 10 main health beneficiaries, and insurance companies can’t raise or lower costs of certain medical conditions as they occur unto the person in which the insurance covers. Along with this the idea of not funding Planned Parenthood would be a destructive one because it wouldn’t provide chances for young women to commit certain things

People have been obsessed with celebrities for a long time now, but not as much as we do now. Colin Palmer wrote a short essay and said that it is harmless fun to have a slight obsession with a celebrity, and that he disagrees with Deborah King because she says that it could be unhealthy to have an obsession with a celebrity. Therefore, I agree with Palmer because people could be going through a tough time in their life, so watching a celebrity on social media so it could bring a smile to their faces.

Many projects will suffer by either being cut down or killed off due to the ACA’s

Flanders’ article on prostitution in Victorian London focuses on the misinformation and misconceptions surrounding sex-workers of that era, especially focusing on how unreliable the numbers involved can be. She approaches the topic with three main arguments in mind: the supposed amount of prostitutes and the evolution of what defines a prostitute, how women are frequently mistaken for prostitutes based upon their appearance, and the often looked-over presence of male prostitutes. Within her article she presents multiple primary sources including: diary entries discussing encounters with prostitutes, letters detailing how women were leered at and the public’s response to such incidents, and even some authors. It is when she first introduces her argument as a whole that she discusses the questionability of the reported number of prostitutes in Victorian London.
