Many Others Do As Well
Barack Obama
Republican presidential challenger, Mitt Romney, referred
to U.S. President Barack Obama's health care plan, dubbed Obamacare, as a
tax. This assessment is based on the financial terms of the program. Each
person in America will be required to pay several hundred dollars per year
or a percentage of their income for health insurance, as a tax, as ruled by
the U.S. Supreme Court. It's the only way the Supreme Court, now apart of
the Obama Administration, could get the bill passed. However, President
Obama doesn't care for the tax label.
The Judiciary Report is of the belief, America needs a
health care program, but the proposed terms will prove insufficient in many
cases to offset the cost of medical treatment. For example, when I became
deathly ill due to the criminal harassment in this
case, over the course of one year, between 2008 to 2009, my medical
bills totaled roughly$100,000. This was due to the amount of medical
scanning that was done. The Obamacare yearly fee wouldn't have even covered
the cost of my hospital room for four days.

The American medical system is one of the most expensive in
the world and needs to find a way to reduce the cost of scanning/imaging.
So many people undergo at least one type of scan per year at a hospital,
which will exceed the equivalent of one year's Obamacare fees. The cost of
medication needs to decrease as well, as some pharmaceutical companies
simply charge too much money for their products. It often takes pharmaceutical
companies a few pennies to manufacture each pill and as the ingredients are
often not expensive, the massive mark up is purely for huge profits.
Obamacare will not solve America's health woes, just
increase the deficit by trillions of dollars, in acts the nation can't
afford and suffer from financial shortages, rather than surpluses. America
needs a solid health care program and if necessary, legislative measures
to address the pharmaceutical and medical equipment manufacturing
industries. A handful of well connected companies are making many billions
per year, while the American people pay a terrible price for
it.
