To Barack Obama: Thank You For Giving Me a Bit of Hope
Today, President Barack Obama signed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care
Act, an historic piece of legislation that will expand health insurance
coverage to include millions of Americans, and stop some of the worst health insurance industry practices.
To Barack Obama:
I thank you from the bottom
of my heart. I am very ill and unable to work. I have gone without
medical, dental, and vision care for the past 6 years. Thanks to you,
hopefully now, I will be able to get Medicaid and be able to see a
doctor, and also get my medications. If Senators Mitch McConnell &
Bunning are not allowed to outlaw the new Bill in my state of Kentucky,
that is. They are certainly doing their best to make sure Kentuckians
will continue to go without health care.
To those who don't know:
Barely ANY job offers health benefits in the state of Kentucky, Medicaid coverage is severely limited, and there are no free health care clinics, only ones that assess for WIC and give mammograms, and do nothing else.
Can
you please work on faster and more efficient processing of Disability
Claims in the Social Security Administration? I have been waiting for 2
1/2 years this go around, and been told it may be another whole year of
waiting with no income and no medical care before I get an ALJ hearing.
I can't survive much longer - I have already lost my home and am
homeless and doing without medical care and all my medications.
All
who are bad-mouthing Mr. Obama: Why are you so against human beings
receiving medical care? What is wrong with you, anyway? You had no
problem giving crooked bankers trillions, and trillions more to kill
innocent people in the Middle East. You are a shame to humanity and
need to grow some compassion. America will advance despite your idiocy.
Yes,
maybe there are some things about this Bill that are not right - I
don't like the part about penalizing people for not buying Health
Insurance, either, and it probably IS unconstitutional. But the only
reason it is there, is because the health insurance lobbyists, and the
Republican recipients of BIG BRIBES PUT it there!
The bill
provides for sliding-scale subsidized health care plans for those who
earn from $14,000 to $36,000, and you will be able to get AFFORDABLE
health insurance. And those earning less than $14,000 will get Medicaid
that has been denied to single people with no children and under the
age of 65 forever. Why would you NOT avail yourself of health insurance
under these greatly improved conditions? You would have to be stupid
not to.
To those who are already able to pay high health insurance
premiums: this does not affect you in the slightest so what are you
complaining about?
Finally, finally! There will be health
care for America's poor and sick.
God Bless You, Mr. Barack
Obama. I had almost lost hope. But now I have a little. Thanks to
you, hopefully I will not be forced to DIE because of a lack of medical
care and my essential medications that I need to live.
Thanks for
giving me my life back. I apologize for not trusting you.
To the
rest of you: You are all spitting into the wind, and get over it!
How the new Health Care Bill will affect you.
