An assessment of the Affodable Care Act (Obama healthcare law) in March 2014
03/22/2014
Gains from lowering the number of U.S. uninsured from 18% in the middle of 2013 to 15.9% in the 1st quarter 2014, according to a Gallup poll. Other gains cited are the the five million enrolled on health exchanges. Slower increases in the cost of healthcare attributed to the law are also due to the lingering effects of the 2008 recession. One of the provisions where children would be covered under their parent's insurance, would have been continued by insurance companies because of its popularity even without the law. Results are weak when it comes to reducing costs in healthcare to be comparable to other advanced developed countries.

Coverage for the 10-12 million people who buy medical insurance on their own under the Affordable Health Care Act (Obama Healthcare Law)
10/29/2013
These people have to sign up for new plans in 2013 compared to the about 149 million people who have employer coverage and do not have to change their plans. Under the new law people cannot be denied coverage for preexisting conditions and people with lower income will get subsidies for their premiums so they will benefit. Benefits are also more broader and more generous. To pay for this insurance companies are charging others higher premiums.

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.
