About 8 million people enrolled by April 2014 for private health insurance on Health Exchanges setup under the Affordable Care Act (Obama Healthcare Law)
03/18/2014
The Congressional Budget Office estimate is for 6 million enrollment on Health Exchanges in 2014, lower than previously estimated 7 million. This follows the flawed rollout of the Obama Healthcare website in 2013 and efforts to correct this.

Media coverage on the U.S. Supreme Court's 2015 Affordable Care Act (Obama healthcare law) 6-3 decision to uphold health subsidies
06/25/2015
The NYT editorial calls the arguments specious based on a four word phrase's ambiguity, and says it was pulled out of thin air by the plaintiffs. In the end it was Justice Kennedy ruling in favor that turned a 6-3 decision away from the 5-4 decision on other issues with the Affordable Care Act in 2012.

Problems with the Affordable Care Act (Obama healthcare law) in 2015 with rapidly rising insurance premiums for healthy middle class people
11/19/2015
Middle class people are not eligible for subsidies and face rapidly rising insurance premiums as insurance companies increase premiums. This goes to pay for the added coast of treating people with prior health conditions and other problems who were previously uninsured or inadequately insured.

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.

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.

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.
