economic damage where job growth will fall by 1.2 million in 2019. Other point to note is that repealing will affect the purchasing power of working people, and this is an indication that local economy will be affected since people will spend less. Decrease in spending will reduce job growth and about 20million people will lose health insurance (Ponnuru, 2017).…
The Affordable Care Act was signed into a law on March 23, 2010, by President Barack Obama. The United States, after long years of demanding Ever since the enactment of Medicaid and Medicare in 1965, this law is considered the most important administrative system of the United States health care system. This law was planned to help avoid terrible health care costs to the people who did not provide health insurance for themselves. The terrible health care costs can destroy the credit scores of the people. This can eventually cause home closure and even bankruptcy. The Affordable Care Act expects to raise the value, admission, and inexpensiveness of health coverage. Also, to lower the health care prices for the government and citizens. In…
However, the opposing argument is that some groups benefit more than others and some suffer negative financial effects. Nothing ever comes completely free and Obamacare is no exception. In order to raise revenue to support Obamacare, there are new taxes that are placed mainly on high-earners. A mandate called the Individual Mandate enforced that everyone had to get healthcare by January 2014 and if they failed to do so a fee would be required. This was an upsetting occurrence to many people because their ability to having a choice was taken away. Also, there are many who just barely miss the Federal Poverty Level and don’t qualify for full assistance which puts them in limbo. In this position they still can’t afford health insurance or it is difficult to pay for, but…

Millions of uninsured people will have access to affordable health insurance through the marketplace. This lowers the amount of unpaid medical bills seen by Emergency and Express Care settings across the contry. More than half of those uninsured can get no cost or low cost health insurance using the State 's Health Insurance Marketplace. State programs such as Medicaid and CHIP will expand their benefits to a greater amount os people in the community that need help. Before in some instances such as cancer if you got ill you were either dropped or your premiums increased to a level that most could not afford. ObamaCare will prohibit insurance companies from these actions. As with filling out of insurance applications perhaps you forgot to add that you were injured in a car accident at the age of 5 because you were so young you didn’t remember or that you had an illness. It used to stand that insurance companies could drop you without a second thought. This plan takes the power to do that away from them (ObamaCare Facts: Dispelling the Myths 2013). If you honestly forgot to put something you will not be dropped. Obamacare goes on to take away pre-existing conditions, meaning that you cannot be denied coverage no matter what your illness is. A lot of insurance companies thought it relevant to charge you more simply based on gender and women would pay a higher premium than men. ObamaCare puts a stop to this egregious act as well. Small…

Repealing Obama Care would put Americans with coverage would be extremely detrimental to them. It would take away all the benefits and cause people to not have health care. “Taking away Obama Care away right now would put 18 million Americans out of health care.” (Bryan). The House of Representatives and the Senate supposedly…
The pros of obamacare are very arguable because many people think that obamacare is not a good thing. Millions of people are able to receive high-quality health insurance through medicaid, and young adults make up a large percentage of those people. Some tend to question whether Obamacare’s cost outweighs the benefits. “The average American has a lot to gain and little to lose. Those making more, including larger firms and consequently their employees, may see negative financial effects. While some groups benefit more than others, most Americans will benefit from the new rights and protections like guaranteed…
As many U.S. residents already know, being prepared for the unexpected is a trait attributed to success, especially when it comes to our family’s health. One typical suggestion when it comes to “making ends meet” in household matters is saving enough money in a family safety net to ensure solvency and to mitigate the high cost of paying for routine medical care or unexpected health issues. However, that is impossible for most people due to the huge costs of current medical coverage. A very limited percentage of the population are able to pay the total cost out of pocket when a medical emergency occurs. Simply obtaining a health insurance plan, either thru employment or by procuring private medical…
The “Affordable Care Act of 2010” also known as “Obamacare” or “Health Care Reform Act of 2010” is a universal healthcare plan that was designed to allow Americans to be able to get quality health insurance that people would be able to afford, and to cut U.S health care spending down as well. Many Americans debated about whether or not it was beneficial for everyone or just certain people, so there are many advantage and disadvantages for Americas due to this reform.…
The affordable Care Act Also known as Obama Care has been the most controversial topic that most Americans debate on. It wasn’t clear whether this would be beneficial for everyone. The main aim of the ACA was to increase healthcare access for low income Americans by providing affordable healthcare coverage, to improve the quality of healthcare, to reduce healthcare cost, and to regulate the healthcare insurance companies. Since the act was passed millions of uninsured Americans were able to get affordable healthcare coverage. However, millions of Americans are still uninsured for many different reasons.…
Obama Care caused a cut of small businesses owners by 22.6 billion dollars a year making it impossible for the business to keep running. Because the business needs that money to keep operations moving and without it they are stopped in there tracks unable to accomplish anything, forcing them to shut down leaving thousands of people out of work. It destroys lives left and right which is why Obama Care should have never been implemented because loads and loads of lives are ruined because everyone is scared to go to the hospital and get that humongous bill leading them to bankruptcy. I can not stress this point enough on how obama care was only directed at the poor people because obama gave them all the free stuff while we suffered. When it should have been “free” for everyone. So they quit their jobs thinking i can just get free health care now and just live off of welfare but they get rejected now they are stuck with no job, starving kids, and no healthcare what so ever, which isn't that much different than obama care. Obama Care made it to where people with jobs have to be careful on how much they make otherwise they would not get the special benefits of obama care “free” stuff. Obama Care was a plan to make everyone dependant on the government so that they would have complete control over everyone and then we would be the United States home of the…
