Obama's healthcare bill is almost equally appreciated and shunned by Americans. The benefit of his bill is that it expanded coverage to 32 million Americans nationally who were previously uninsured. The 940 billion doller's it is estimated to cost is worth it in my opionion. The government spends much more on war and killing other people it may as well empty its pockets to protect and keep alive it's own citizens. Some people are amazed that a nation like America still does not have national healthcare. We are all about protecting our people and not leaving anyone behind, yet millions of people are dying because they are not covered. I think this bill could mean that we are well on our way to national healthcare.
I do know that it has helped my sister who is 22 and working as a CNA and could not get full-time hours. She put off all of her doctors appointments even when she was sick. Now she can go to the dentist and other visits she is due to make. My boyfriend no longer has to pay for health insurance every month just because he decided to own a business and not go right to school. I think Obama had in mind all the college graduates who were not going to be finding jobs right away and still need to rely on mom and dad to get a check-up.
Now Obama... How about that student debt ?!
