American National Government Obamacare Tracy Harris The Obama care Reformation is one of the leading controversial subject matters In the United States. The signing of the medical bill by Barrack Obama has influences and has been the topic of much controversy among employers everywhere. The position of Health care among employers strategic position as if pertain to health care insurance and premium and has many organization rethinking and going back to the table to reevaluate their health insurance plans that effect their employees (Patterson, T. (2012, July 27). The greatest fear of the Obama care is that people may lose their rights to choose their own personal physician. In the health care systems the patients relies on the system for the proper treatment, care and medicine in the long
Talking about the 18,000 people who die a year because they don't have health insurance and the ones that do go broke, loose their houses and even go bankrupt because of health insurance co-pays. Not to mention the one seventy nine year old man the video showed, having to work at the age of 79 to afford his wife's medicine even though he was on medicaide, and will have to work till he dies. Then the part where the video
We are told that diabetes is spreading like an epidemic. I read somewhere that every six minutes another person has a digit or limb amputated as a result of diabetes. Imagine it: We target a disease and cure it. Or suppose we had spent that much money on rebuilding the infrastructure of the nation, inevitably described as crumbling? The jobs created would have gone a long way toward cushioning the nation’s economy when Wall Street screwed
Lastly, the amount of personal bankruptcies will be reduced. Many Americans file for bankruptcy because of their medical bills, if the rates go down and more people can afford coverage then it would make sense that the amount of bankruptcies would also go down. Even though the pros all help and seem great the cons to this policy also holds valid points. First, “18 million of the uninsured will be forced to go under Medicaid, while the rest will have to accept another government program. Even so, millions will remain uninsured,” (Pros and cons of Obama care June 29, 2012).
Sicko is most closely related to Farmer's argument against just looking at healthcare's cost-effectiveness that he describes as one of the "excuses of our times" (Farmer, 274). In Sicko, one of the most horrifying facts brought to light is that some American insurance companies give bonuses to doctors who can find ways to avoid meeting the cost of medical treatments for policy holders. This is an overwhelming example of putting cost-effectiveness before health and quality healthcare, and even casts Americans as an unequal group because the film shows other parts of the world that have better access to quality health coverage. This shows that there are many levels of inequality in the healthcare system, and they are in place for a variety of reasons: social, economical, and
It seems that he has his own principles that he puts before the interests. Obama can only lead America to its damnation and not otherwise and he has probably already signed himself in as one term president. The decisions he makes about America are all wrong for America even when the policies are good. This is like putting the card before the horse but still getting the wrong horse into the harness. Generally, Obama is bad for America and so is his presidency.
But I also know that nearly a century after Teddy Roosevelt first called for reform, the cost of our health care has weighed down our economy and the conscience of our nation long enough. So let there be no doubt: health care reform cannot wait, it must not wait, and it will not wait another year.” President Barack Obama, February 24,
On several occasions, advocates believed they were on the verge of success; yet each time they faced defeat. First major attempt to fix the failing healthcare system was proposed by Clinton administration in 1994. The proposed plan was an enforced mandate for employer-provided health insurance through competitive but closely regulated HMOs (Aaron, 1996, p. 87). The idea of Universal Healthcare was aggressively opposed by conservatives, libertarians, and the health insurance industry. Opposing parties argued that it was overly bureaucratic and restrictive of patient choice.
However, socialized medicine is fraudulent and unconstitutional, and if some forms were implemented, the quality of service would begin to deteriorate. To begin, the socialized medical systems already implemented, have become fraudulent and therefore unconstitutional. The most alarming evidence is that Medicare and
Running on Empty Running on Empty: How the Democratic and Republican Parties are Bankrupting Our Future and What Americans Can Do About It In this book P. Peterson reminded the Bush aide that the United States faced a frightening long term balance sheet. This is the same scenario we have heard before but now we are living it. “As more than 70 million baby boomers begin retiring later in the decade, the Social Security and Medicare programs are destined to sink into multitrillion-dollar deficits, causing enormous hardships for younger Americans. Bush had a chance to avert disaster, Peterson told his aide. By using the immediate surpluses to fix the looming crisis, the new president could possibly solve "one of the largest fiscal challenges
