Margot Sanger-Katz of the NYT provides an excellent summary of winners and losers under the new Republican House healthcare bill that passed the House in a 217-213 vote on May 4, 2017. On the whole middle income people and higher income people stand to benefit, with sharp cuts in Medicaid, and higher premiums as well as smaller subsidies based on age affecting older people. Pre-existing conditions and minimum benefits are included as in ACA, with the provision that states can in some ways limit that coverage. Employers are no longer required to provide mandatory health coverage, helping large and small business owners.

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.
