Health Care
-Why people are upset
• Some people dislike the new health care bill because they believe it will raise their premiums & take away their options.
• People who voted against it were making money off the previous healthcare plan.
• They say healthcare is going up 7% yearly.
• Inflation is growing a lot slower. So.. Healthcare is going up Faster than inflation
• People are scared of losing insurance because and existing condition
• They say it will make premiums go up.

-What it is and how it works
• It makes insurance more affordable for the middle class by providing the biggest health care tax cut in history. This helps families and small business owners who cannot afford coverage today. Also around 95% of Americans will be insured.
• It sets up a new competitive health insurance market that gives Americans the same the same choices of health care that congress would have.
• It gives greater responsibility to health care by setting in common sense rules of the rode so it keeps the premiums(how much you pay out of your pocket) down.
• It keeps insurance companies from denying a person coverage because of an existing condition.
• It puts are budget and economy on a steady path to recovery by reducing the deficit by $100 billion over the next ten years, and more that $1 trillion over the second decade. It will do this be cutting government overspending.

-How is it different from what we had.
• Use to say some but not all poor people could have medicade.
• People were insured by their employer
• The new healthcare law is a government based healthcare system.
