Now Poor People Will Have Access To The Same Health Care That Republican Senators and Congressmen Have. Sound Fair ?
Supreme Court upholds Obamacare 5-4
President Obama touted the benefits of the law he championed as he reacted to the Supreme Court's ruling.
"By this August, nearly 13 million of you will receive a rebate from your insurance company because it spent too much on things like administration and CEO bonuses and not enough on your healthcare,” Obama said.
Other benefits include lower drug costs for seniors as well as denying insurers the option to deny coverage because of pre-existing conditions. It also provides free preventative care in certain cases and issues credits to those who can’t afford their health insurance premiums.
The president said he respects concerns about the bill and he understands that people are worried that it was politically driven, but he said it should be clear by now he didn’t push for the act because it was “good politics."
“I did it because I believed it was good for the American people,” he said.

President Barack Obama on Thursday called the Supreme Court's decision upholding his signature health care law "a victory for people all over this country whose lives will be more secure because of this law."
"They’ve reaffirmed a fundamental principle, that here in America, the wealthiest nation on Earth, no illness or accident should lead to any family’s financial ruin,” Obama said.

GuruA2J~#IOKIYAR~612 BLOCKT 2012/06/28 21:18:18YES, Poor People Deserve Affordable Health Care+17BLESS GOD, poor people deserve affordable health care & so does the middle-class who have seen their premiums increase for decades while their benefits decreased. It's a great day to be an AMERICAN!





















On top of this, they must spend at least 80% of your premiums on actual healthcare, if not then those who hold the policy will receive a rebate every year. Once all is in place i believe this will work very well, and now the republicans if they honestly care about people ( as they claim) will have to work in a responsible manner, if not then it may not work.
But come Aug., once people start receiving their rebates, i suspect they will like it. Because when i did drive, i often wondered what becomes of the money i send in, but get in no accidents, i never got a percentage of that back. With the ACA among other things i will get some money back, if i stay healthy. Its a financial incentive for people to get healthy or stay healthy, because as you know money is what all Americans care about.
