Jim DeMint: We Won't Back Down on ObamaCare
Keywords:
Former Senator Jim DeMint lays out his reasoning for the Republican fight to defund ObamaCare, as the healthcare legislation is now called by Republicans. He points to problems with the legislation with issues about how much the added entitlements will cost in the future( more than the $250 billion by 2023 estimate of CBO insists DeMint based on the general lowballing of projections), and higher premiums for the young and elderly on exchanges. He says the 2012 elections were fought on economic issues not ObamaCare, and that the public he has met in visits to different states as president of the Heritage Foundation continues to be skeptical about ObamaCare. He sees the correct role of the Opposition party to point out the deficiencies in the law and call for corrections in the path for healthcare.

The Affordable Care Act (Obama Health Care Law) and the increasing number of people who may lose employer coverage
06/16/2011
Under the Obama healthcare law (Obamacare) businesses can opt to pay a fine of $2000 instead of providing coverage. The people losing coverage are then put in an exchange where they can buy insurance, with those whose premiums are more than 9.5% of income receiving subsidies. The incentive for employers to pay the fine and dump workers on the exchange can put 11 million to 80 million additional people on the exchange. The cost of the Obama health care law would rise significantly as a result.

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.
