Comment on Obama's health care reform

According to President Obama’s speech about Health care policies on Wednesday’s night, there seems to be both the supporters and rejecters to his health care reform. But for me, I think this reform really works and it is going to be a big change for all American people. This reform covers many main points that mainly benefit and support to small businesses as well as individuals.

First, the president told that this policy is not going to subsidize any illegal immigrants. Second, Obama assured that this health care plan would not affect the federal deficit. Moreover, the plan will help an individual who can’t afford any health insurance by offering the low-cost insurance program for them. For those who already have their own health insurance, there would be no change in their program but in long-run, this plan will also hopefully to improve most of medical services. For any company, it is required to offer their workers health care, but with this plan, they would be exempt due to the size of their business and the small number of profit margin. What’s more, this plan was assured to all senior citizens that it is not going to use the funds of Medicare. The last one is Obama stated that there won’t be any subsidies to this public option. On the other hand, this public option would be self-sufficient organization.

For me, I do support the president Obama’s health care reform since it seems to benefit everybody equally. This public option is going to protect people from the monopoly power of big insurance company. This plan don’t force anyone to choose, but just increase choice from for them to consider that best one that suit with them. I think this health plan will help improving the living standard of entire country. Moreover, if people have insurance that could cover all medical expenses, there will be more money left in their pocket for purchasing other things. Hence, this could indirectly help stimulating the economy.
