My personal opinion on the government reform on health care is way different from the way that others view, but at the same time I am open to their opinions as well. The government sees health care as big threat to the United States, because the more people that unemployed don’t have health care and that means that the people who do have jobs have to pay for those bills. So the government asks itself if we should even have health care. In 2006 the total amount of Americans that were not covered by insurance 46, 995. Now I know that might seem like a lot, but think of the amount money that everyone that had a job and was covered insurance had to pay for those 46,995 people for their hospital bills. Now in 2007 it states that only 15.8 out of 100.0 were covered by insurance. That might not be a lot either, because maybe the economy was good, so more people had jobs. So does that mean that people that didn’t have jobs were lazy and didn’t go look for jobs so weren’t covered by insurance? We will never know. Now in 2006 and 2007 there are many sections that are broken into for everyone that was not covered by insurance. However, in today’s society in 2010 we have the highest unemployment rate and you can read that anywhere. Well I think that we should have health care, because as of today I live in Nevada which is on a state of economic crisis where there are barely any jobs and I think health care should take care of those people out of work. Even though someone out there probably wouldn’t agree with me, but I think that there should some way that we can take of people without it coming out of our pockets.
The information about statistics I got from this website.
