I have learned that the Governments response to health care reform is mixed with emotion!
President Obama passed a health insurance plan to help many people in need of affordable health care. The insurance coverage will help everyone overall, but many people disagree because they feel it is too expensive. We must consider the current costs that tax payers are currently spending on the uninsured population today. Not only do we subsidize services through taxes, but we also pay high, high, high insurance premiums. Taxpayers already spend billions upon billions of dollars year after year in medical costs for the uninsured.
I feel that the health care plan that Obama passed is a great start to helping people living in poverty, uninsured and under-insured. This health program shifts much of the cost from the Government to the insured. There are many people suffering from catastrophic illnesses that need necessary treatment or procedures and their current insurance will not cover them. The Obama health plan makes insurance affordable and addresses many of the issues I mentioned above. The Government must continue addressing the issues of the poor, impoverished and all citizens in need of help with innovative programs such as Health Care Reform.
Keith, I just dont believe this health reform is fair to everybody. I am not saying republicans should jump to repeal the policy, but maybe his policies should have a little more common sense?
ReplyDeletePretty much everyone who has a job and gets legally paid pays taxes. These taxes go to help those who are in poverty get medical help. Ok and where that whole thing just becomes over the top complete non-sense is when normal people who are trying to make their ends meet and are barely doing it because they aren't getting paid enough and theres a ton of taxes being taken out of their check each pay period on top of that, they can't afford health care but their money goes to help others be able to afford healthcare. In my opinion health care is just too important for people to mess around with and see how much money they can squeeze out of you.
