This picture was posted on, CNN Politics website page I found the image very captivating as to where this individual stands on the affordable healthcare act. I feel like very many individuals are torn on the subject and so not know which way to turn, or which side to stand on, due to a lack of understanding. I think most of us can agree with the fact that no one other than president Obama has the full understanding as to what this bill is going to do to the American peoples' healthcare system and how this is going to affect the population at large. I have heard many articles on the subject of "a government controlled healthcare system" will only bring about a decline in the actual health services that we can receive, due to the specialty doctors and nurse practitioners going out of the county to practice law due to the opportunity to make enough money to cover what it cost them to go to school. You can simply look at Canada's healthcare, a government controlled healthcare system, and see a trend in similarities to what these "rumors" are stating. You can also talk to the people who currently have a government controlled healthcare system and most are saying that it was a mistake to allow the government to control their healthcare. I can honestly say I would much rather have kept the healthcare the way it was, even though I am an American citizen who could desperately use these benefits, I would much rather be able to find the assistance on my own then to have the government provide me with alternatives.
