Ileke-IdI:
Can someone briefly explain the ObamaCare?

In Brief:

http://www.conservapedia.com/ObamaCare:
ObamaCare, formally known as "The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act," will impose massive penalties on young workers, small businesses and others who choose not to buy expensive health insurance, beginning in 2014. ObamaCare is the biggest handout by liberals to a single interest group — the health insurance industry — in American history. Even a Democrat Senator recently admitted: ObamaCare "cost Obama a lot of credibility as a leader."[1] On June 28, 2012, the Supreme Court of the United States upheld the constitutionality of ObamaCare — by only one vote, 5-4 — as being within the taxing power of the federal government.

The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS) pointed out that there are no redeeming provisions of Obama's health care plan.[2] AAPS observes that Obama's health care plan will significantly increase the overall cost of health care for a majority of United States citizens, plus reduce the quality of care that a free market system would otherwise provide.[3]

ObamaCare is opposed by many state governors, including Florida Governor Rick Scott. He declared after the Supreme Court ruling, "I will not implement this law. Florida will not implement Obamacare." Scott encouraged other states to reject ObamaCare in three ways:
opt out of the expensive Medicaid provision in ObamaCare, which would incur massive costs in extending free care to those over the poverty line
refuse to set up a health-insurance exchange - "If there were any value added by these exchanges, the private sector would be doing it already," Governor Scott observed
repeal ObamaCare in Congress, which requires electing a Republican majority in the U.S. Senate

mbhs139: I hope we will have such a debate come 2015, when issues affecting the citizens will be discussed.

Not the one that NTA will organise one for the sitting president in his bedroom

Obama Care is the unofficail name for The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act which was signed into law on March 23, 2010. In a more general sense Obama Care and The Health Care for America Plan or any such name is a refernce to the ongoing health care reform under President Obama

ObamaCare / The Health Care For America Plan:

There are really only three things you need to know about President Barak Obama's Obama Care / Health Care For America Plan.

• Obama Care gaurentees that Health Care is available to any legal U.S. resident who cannot otherwise obtain "good" healthcare through their employer.

• Gives American Employers the choice between providing comparable insurance and paying a modest contribution to the ObamaCare Health Care system to aid in the Health Coverage of all Americans.

• Requires that all Americans have health insurance either through a private provider or by the Health Care for America Plan.

@mbhs139

"Good" is very subjective. Sounds sneaky.

Could you please elaborate on what obamacare means by "good"?
Re: Anyone Watching The Live Obama And Romney Presidenial Debate? by Biggoozz: 3:33am On Oct 04, 2012
