The Obama Care bill should NOT have been passed

Now for my final argument, let me say that we all know who our President is, and we all know he has a tough job ahead of him. Unfortunately, we don't all know how important this Health Care Reform is. Government Health Care is just as essential as any other government ran services, such as police, military, and the postal service. Each and every day in this country, Americans are grappling with health care premiums that are growing three times the rate of wages and insurance company policies that limit coverage and raise out-of-pocket costs. Thousands are losing their insurance coverage each day. Without reform, the burdens on America's families and businesses will continue to multiply. This Health Care Reform is an issue of vital concern to every American, and it should be. Under this reform, if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. If you like your private health insurance plan, you can keep your plan. This reform is just an option to those without insurance. You are under no obligation to shift to a public plan. But, if you don't have insurance, you will finally have access to quality coverage you can afford. If you do have insurance you will benefit from more security and more stability when it comes to your insurance. If you lose your job, change jobs, or move, you will not have to worry about losing health coverage. This bill sets up tougher consumer protections that will hold insurance companies accountable and stop them from exploiting you with unfair practices. It prohibits insurance companies from denying coverage because of a person's medical history; They will not be able to water down your coverage when you need it the most. They will no longer be able to place an arbitrary cap on the amount of coverage you can receive in a given year or a lifetime. There will be a limit on how much out-of-pocket expenses because, "No one in America should go broke because they are sick. " -President Obama, Aug. 21, 2009 Insurance companies will be required to cover routine check ups and preventive care. This reform will help bring down skyrocketing costs, which will mean real savings for families, businesses, and government. This reform will provide every American family and business a measure of security and stability that they lack today. Private insurance companies are the ones in charge of managing the pool of money and dull out the money to the people who need it. On average, these companies take out 10-20 cents for every dollar put in. Some of that goes to administrator costs, some are used for political campaigns to fight against health insurance reform, and some of the money is pure profit for the investors. Medicare takes out about 2-3 cents per dollar, but none of that is a profit. With government health care, there is no money coming out, so the money actually goes to caring for people's health. "My opponent said "Nobody said anything about their taxes being spent unfairly, until Obama came along. " And to be honest, I actually laughed out loud slightly when I read this. I have never heard a comment farther from the truth posted here. " Yes, people have been complaining about high taxes for years, but not over whether or not they had an option about what their taxes are going towards, or that they didn't have a say in the matter. There are lots of outrageous rumors circulating on the internet, television and in basic conversations within America. I could talk until I'm blue in the face trying to defend this reform, but the people that believe these rumors are never going to take what I say into perspective. They will only appreciate this reform if something happens to them and they find themselves in need of the Obama Care. I do admit though, the bill could be better, perhaps, but reform has to start somewhere.
