In the editorial
The Obamacare Bomb by the Washington Times the author talks about what a huge mistake and mess up that Obamacare is and how it will affect us in the future if we don't do anything about this. They do not give the name of the author but i have to assume that he or she is credible if they were willing to release this. Throughout most of the editorial the author gives negative points and very bad tasting reviews towards Obamacare and how it will affect the American people. He predicts that once out it will turn big businesses broke. He refers to Obamacare as giving the part time people the power. "A typical family of four with an income of up to $94,200 will get a
generous subsidy for health insurance if the head of the house drops out
of full-time work and becomes a part-timer." but to become a part timer one must sacrifice more money that is naturally coming into the household. A study was done by Casey B. Mulligan stating "Obamacare incentives encourage Americans to become much less productive."
For one to look closer upon this and get more information about obamacare one must look at not only the cons of the operation but the pros as well. For the cons we have already looked at but the main one for small and big business is that with the enforcement of Obamacare companies are going to start shifting hard working employees to Part time positions in order to maintain staying afloat. Only due to the fact that because if a employee is part time than the employer is not forced to give them any healthcare benefits at all.
The pros of Obamacare are you can not be denied of healthcare because of pre existing conditions that you might have. it is open for everyone. You can not be kicked off of your parents healthcare plan until you are 26 making it cheaper for everyone. If discovered that you have a life threatnign disease then you will not just be kicked from the hospital anymore and you by law will not be dropped from you insurance plan. These are just some of the pros to Obamacare.
I agree with just about everything that the author has said in this editorial seeing as i do not support obamacare and think it is a breach of our rights, and is just the start of stupid things to come from Obama. But all in all i think the author should have thrown in a few positive points about Obamacare seeing as it is already in place and will be enforced soon. Many states are already planning and setting up exchanges.
