Obamacare- 1

      October 1st is the date that the Affordable Care Act (a.k.a - Obamacare) will be implemented.
It is important that we know what this is and what it means.

     All Americans want to improve the health care system. No matter which "party" you support, its our nature to want to help other people. When President Obama passed the law in 2010, we were all promised lower costs, lower premiums and improved care. The word on the street was it was free health care for everyone. It turns out....that's not what it is.
     Under this new law, you are required to have a  qualified health care plan and the proof must be attached to your income taxes. This means it will be enforced by the corrupt I.R.S! They will now have the power to track you and penalize you for noncompliance. Young, healthy people can no longer have low cost plans. The Health and Human Service's secretary will now decide what coverage you have to pay for and how much you must pay.
For the first time in history, doctors will no longer be able to make decisions based on the best interest of their patients. Under Obamacare doctors will have to provide the care approved by the government.
     With Obamacare, privacy as we know it will be a thing of the past. Under the new health plan your physician is required to enter all information for each patient, including all treatments, into a government electronic database. Doctors are then instructed on what the government deems to be cost effective and appropriate care. The government will now have access to all of your private records.
     Obama care will also raise the cost of health care in America because it forces higher expenses on health insurance companies, who will then pass the cost down to you and me.

     Starting in 2014 all employers with 50 or more full time employees will be fined $2,000
a year, per uninsured or un-enrolled employee. In turn small companies are cutting the hours of full time employees, making them part time, to avoid fees. This is creating a nation of par time employees.
In the end Obama care will force citizens to purchase a government product or face penalties.
With 10,000 pages of regulations, it is unclear if anyone has actually read this monstrosity.
I encourage all Americans to research Obamacare for yourselves. I have only touched on a few items that I selected to talk about. -BDB
