1) The benificial components are that medical insurance will expand, closer to coming to near universal-coverage, elderly gets the best out of it
2) Negative component are health coverage payments will go up, Doctors and hospitals will be paid less for their "services", business have to pay more for their employee's health insurance
3) Well, I guess I would say I'm mutual in this little... debate. I'm for it because it helps cover more people. At the same time I'm against it because; our taxes will go up. And if our state will be mean, we could get fined if we don't have health coverage. So, honestly, I'm confused on the whole issue.
1.the benificial components are medical insurance will be expanded, closer to coming to near universal-coverage and elderly gets the best out of it.
2.negative components is the health coverage payments will be increased. the doctors and the hospitals will be paid less for their work. the business hae to pay alot more for their employees health insurance.
3.well i dont think it is a very good thing that all the doctors will get paid less for their work.
Kyle. I would have to say... You should maybe try to look at it from both points of view. Unless you decide to become a doctor... But, for those who do not have health insurance will starting getting covered
1. The passing of subsequent fixes.
2. The costs of health care.
3. I don't really like this bill because it is costing people tons of money.
I agree with melissa because taxes would go up and i agree with kyle because the doctors getting paid less will probably make them not wanna work or something.
ballplayerwell melissa
maybe i will be come a doctor.haha not!!!!but the gorvnment can't make people buy health insurance but i do see it from both points. but most of the people that dont have health insurance can't aford it so how could they get it if they can't aford it.
i can not spell for leave me alone
Okay Kyle... You got me there. This is the part that makes me mad though. They won't be paying for the insurance... We, the actual hard-working tax payers, will. So, guess no more sitting on the couch being lazy anymore. So, this is where people should be against it
1 health care will be easier to get and is cheaper. the youth and the oldies get the best coverage
2 health care services cost less. businesses have to pay some for their employees health care
3 i think the health care is a big bunch of crap. it is a bad deal that they are forcing us to have the health care services and insurance that they demand.
I agree with melissa about the taxes going up.
i agree with Cody that the Health Care bill is a bunch of crap.
Denton, I agree with you. This bill is costing people a lot of money. But, it's only the working people that it's really affecting.
cody i agree with you it is a bunch of crap because they can't make people pay for health insurance.
i agree with melissa that it is a bad thing that taxes will go up b/c it will make some of the poorer people will go broke
i agree with austin that by this they are kind of violating our rights as a human being.
The health care bill will change the way thousands and millions and billions Americans get health insurance. Either in a good way or bad way. Good thing is they say people will live longer. One thing i found is that the health care bill will also ban doctors from owning stock in health care companies. Some people believe that the government will become to interfered and take away the peoples choice. Another bad thing is that doctors and hospitals are going to be paid less for services.
I dont really know what to think about it there are some good things and some bad things So many things have changed in this bill over the past year. iguess it's good.
i agree with melissa
and austin
1) Medical insurance will be expanded, closer to coming to near universal-coverage,elderly gets the best out of it and everyone will get health care.
2) Doctors and hospitals will be paid less for their "services", health coverage payments will go up, business have to pay more for their employee's health insurance.
3) I think that the health care bill is stupid and they shouldn't of done it. I think people should get to choose if they want it or not.
Melissa i can see both of your points and they are good.
