What a year it has been for health insurance. As many a liberal says, including me, why do the republicans fight so hard to keep people from having health insurance? I don't need to rehash the whole thing here. There arguments include that it is socialism and that Obama is a dictator. The truth be told, the repubs couldn't find their way out of a paper bag.
Let's just say that the ACA is now the law of the land, and thank goodness. Is it ideal? Is it perfect? No, but it is the first step in the right direction. People will now be able to get the health insurance they need without regard to health or employment. It is a good day indeed.
When I became self employed a year ago, I had to buy my own health insurance. I looked
for health insurance quotes
and found a good priced one for me. That was before the ACA came into effect. I have been told I can keep my policy for another year, which is good. The equivalent ACA policy would be about twice as much. But am I ticked off by that? No! If I needed it, I would buy it. And maybe the prices will come down or even out. But at least we are moving in the right direction regarding heath care.
