Some arguments

I looked to see what people on CNN were saying. This is a talk between a few analysts who were going over the health care bill, what Democrats are or need to be doing in order to pass it and why. They point out that the chances are that the bill is going to pass. They say that this is the beginning, it’s not already set in stone, but there are going to be a lot of changes to it. That has been seen with all of the modifications that have been made to it so far, like health care involving illegal and legal immigrants for example.

That’s one of the good and bad sides of having a two party system, where one party has to fight to pass a bill, and the other fights to change it so that their needs are met also. Really, it’s all negotiation.

 

I thought it was interesting that Alex Castellanos is attacking the bill. Especially because his firm represents an association of health insurance companies-the people who probably want the bill less.

 

It’s important to look at who is talking and what their motives are for saying what they are. Politics is all about looking out for your best interest.

 

I was so happy to hear Jamal Simmons talk to Alex Castellano. He’s talking about the infectiveness of the bill but Jamal Simmons points out that yes, that’s true but there are going to be so many good things that come from it too! He’s really pointing out the effects it will have on the health of the nation, not the economy.

What's going on in Health Care Today?

Hi!

Health Care Reform. It's all over the news today, and trust me, it's confusing. Why should there be reform? and most importantly, how much is it going to cost us? 

Politicians are naming a billion reasons why the health care system should stay the way it is. I'll name a billion why it shouldn't. That’s what I want to do with this blog. I believe health care is about the people and their health- not for profit. There is a time when we all have to think if worrying so much about costs and taxes is really as important as caring for people’s health’s. Money is the most disposable thing we have, but somehow it is also the one thing we refuse to let go of.

There is a lot to be said about the system in America today. There are a lot of people who are left out of it and ignored.

One, minorities usually do not have health coverage.

Two, people in underserved areas (inner cities, rural counties) do not have health coverage.

Three, low-income workers do not have health coverage.

That is too many people.

I’m going to show you guys what Obama and Biden are saying, what people are arguing and what other people are already doing about fixing the situation.

You decide where you stand on the issue.
