The uninsured in the U.S. and the Affordable Care Act (Obama healthcare law)
09/17/2010
About 53% of the uninsured showed disapproval of the law, compared to 51% of the insured in a CBS/New York Times poll in Dec. 2013. About a third of the uninsured say it will help them personally, and about a third of the uninsured say the cost will hurt them personally. Six out ten uninsured still think it will make their health better, a third say they will likely pay the penalty for not carrying insurance. For a law designed to help the unisured this shows some serious shortcomings in the law in the way cost issues were addressed, including the rising cost of healthcare in the U.S.

Deep Poverty in the U.S. increasing from about 30% of people in poverty in 1975 to 44% in 2013
09/17/2010
Deep poverty is defined as income 50% below the official poverty line. Since the beginning of the recession deep poverty in the U.S. has increased from 42% to 44%. The striking change in America is the accentuation of the income differences with the rise in deep poverty. This is coupled with similiar changes in income differences for the middle class Americans with income concentrated at the higher levels.

The implementation of the new U.S. Health Care Law in 2014-2016- the situation for people ages 18-34 in Oregon
09/17/2010
For uninsured young people earning about 17,000 the law provides deductibles as low as $100 and premiums of about $50 a month because of federal subsidies. For uninsured young people earning about $29,000 the deductible is about $6300 and the premiums higher at about $147, making it easier to pay the federal penalty of $150 for not carrying insurance in 2016 and buying insurance in later years as the penalty goes up to $325.

The evangelical Christian vote in the U.S. and in states like Ohio in the 2012 U.S. presidential election
09/16/2010
The evangelical Christian vote helped president George W. Bush win Ohio in 2004 by 2 points, countering the Democratic vote in Cuyahoga county around Cleveland. McCain failed to connect with evangelicals in 2008. The evangelicals, and pastors like Jerry Falwell and Billy Graham, the head of the Southern Baptist Convention, and evangelical Christian organizer Ralph Reed are organizing support for Romney in 2012. Obama's support for gay marriage is one issue, another is alienating of Catholic communities in some aspects of Obama legislation. The selection of a conservative Catholc from Wisconsin, Paul Ryan, as running mate is also creating increased fervour among evangelicals.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
