I agree with Reid, revamping America’s health care system would be far too complicated. I liked how Reid connected the ideas of a health care reform to many of the presidents of the past including Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. Ironically enough, Clinton’s reform didn’t even make it to congress and he was also impeached during his presidency. Is that a coincidence?

America’s health industry, primarily the health insurance and pharmaceutical industry, is careless and just plain greedy! I have learned there are about fifty million Americans who are uninsured while the rest who have insurance could become and are “victims of insurance company fraud”(Moore). If you have a certain age or health problems health insurance will deny you no matter what. THE IMPACT OF THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT ON MIDDLE-SIZED CLASS.

we had our first black president, his name was Barack Obama. At the time I was in fourth grade so I wasn't really into politics and I'm still not. I do know though that he has been one of my top presidents thus far besides the great George Washington. President Obama is a dad, husband, protector, leader, and most of all a game changer.

that wanted to help those in need. This form of care for the people of this country has grown to a healthcare system that accounts for 3.2 trillion dollars of the nation’s gross domestic products (CMS (2016). This staggering number has grown each year and clearly shows the impact that it can have on the economy. As the years have passed by, so has the political landscape.

The U.S. ranks one of lowest in health care performance internationally. The U.S. has vast access to quality health care and is far ahead of any other country in technology, but it is one of the most expensive healthcare system in the world but still underperforms more than any other country. The U.S. can benefit learning from other countries that have developed a better healthcare system. The U.S. is a young country compared to other countries, it’s still developing a way to provide the American
Introduction Understanding the complex structure of the many health care subsystems in the United States goes a long way to explaining why it is often so hard to get anything done or to create change; a system this complicated does not move quickly or easily—or sometimes, at all. Understanding that the system is made up of multiple separate and unconnected collections of financing and provision of care reveals how difficult it is to carry out any reasonable system-wide planning for the entire system
