Health Care Reform will be a difficult “mission” for President Obama, as health care has traditionally been a tough fight. President Obama has promised, repeatedly, to make health care affordable for everyone. In fact, he has often times been called a socialist for his health care ideals. But when the US has approximately 46 million people who are uninsured someone has to get to work.
His health care reform also includes:
1. requiring large companies to provide care plans for their employees or contribute to funds for the uninsured
2. requiring that ALL children are insured (expanding State Children’s Health Insurance Program and Medicaid
3. creating a national insurance program for people who don’t have employers who provide insurance (like Cobra)
