It seems to me based on what I am seeing that the president’s re-election team will be campaigning on the Affordable Care Act, also known as healthcare reform or Obamacare. My answer to that is why the hell did it take this long.
It is fact that for the vast majority of Americans the Affordable Care Act will save American lives and will save Americans money absent healthcare reform. In fact that Republicans will knowingly lie about what the new law entails is not just a political posture. It is evil. The Republican Party has lost all sense of morality in order to maintain their ideology, an ideology that benefits just the top 1% in our country.
As the weeks go by I will be posting the real contrast between the benefits of Democratic-ism and the ills and evils of the current Republicanism. I will prove that Republicanism is in direct contrast with Christianity and most religions. Those who are complicit in electing this brand of Republicans, specifically and more so those that lead congregations in that direction, will knowingly have blood on their hands. Willful ignorance is not an excuse,
Almost two years ago on March 23rd, after a tough fight for health care reform, President Obama signed the Affordable Care Act into law.
Whether you’re young or old, covered or uninsured, you’re personally affected. You — and everyone you know — should understand exactly what this landmark legislation means.
So we created a new health care app to show you. Check it out and make sure to pass it on to everyone who needs to know:
Our new app breaks your benefits down piece by piece. I’ve been working on health care policy for a long time now, and I can tell you, I learned some things, too. When I first tested it out, I plugged in information like age, gender, and insurance type. Here’s what I found out:
— I no longer have to worry about a lifetime cap on my coverage.
— I can access free preventive care, like mammograms.
— My premiums will get more affordable.
— By 2014, it will no longer be legal for an insurance company to deny me coverage due to a pre-existing condition.
Once you’ve got the details, we’re counting on you to help get the word out. Share the summary of your own benefits with your friends through email, Facebook, and Twitter — because these changes could lead to a life-saving screening for cancer, coverage in the event of a catastrophic accident, or a fairer price for someone you know. Together, we’re not going to let the other side tell the story of health care in this election.
It all comes down to the regular people who are finally getting the care and coverage they need. That’s what people need to know.
Check out our new app for a rundown of how you benefit, and pass it on:
