Hello all,
Just the other day my teacher told me about infographics. They are these neat pictures that have lots of infromation on them. So I selected one to give you some information on.
This is a breakdown of obama's healthcare plan 2010. The plan will cost 938 billion dollars. I feel that is a big amount of money. Chain restaurants have to post caloric values on their menus. I feel that might make people choose healthier foods. Employers probably aren't very happy but, they will be taxed 2000 dollars for every person who does not have healthcare.
Where are they going to come up with this 938 billion dollars? Employers with over fifty employees will be charged 2000 dollars per employee without health insurance. Maybe we should come up with another plan? The plan also says companies can no longer deny coverage to adults with pre existing conditions or else have to pay a fine. Why didn't we have this along time ago?
I feel that this would lower healthcare cost. Promoting healthier people and people living longer. I feel the way the plan sounds it will put our country in more debt. 10% tax increase tanning salons will have to pay. Sun tanning booth who's bright idea was that? They are not safe and create the risk of skin cancer. Five hundred million dollars will be cut from Medicare. Why so much? Is this really a good of thing?
The bill will add profits to drug and biotech companies as they will now have many more Americans to supply there products for. Which will help stimulate the economy in the end.
