    Many political campaign ads are full of logical fallacies and metaphors which contribute to a candidate’s downfall or success. In fact, they are known for it. It is often rather easy to manipulate people to vote a certain way by using deceptive persuasion or making metaphorical comparisons. When trying to persuade someone else to adopt a position, these rhetorical tools contribute to the overall purpose of each campaign. The video campaign, “Obamacare: More Than a Glitch,” is a perfect example of this.…

    In her article “What is ObamaCare”, Kimberly Amadeo (2013) proclaims how the economy is changing, how the changes affect this country and steps you need to take now so it will be beneficial in the near future. She addresses the different individual categories that an American or American family could be placed in when selecting coverage. Amadeo feels that the cost of ObamaCare could be considered as both a pro and a con. She feels that the calculation depends on the assumptions used. Estimates ranging from $1.76 trillion added to the debt down to $143 billion subtracted from the debt are all correct according to her research (Amadeo2013).…

    We will no longer be paying for a system that wastes $400 billion in excessive administrative costs, more of our health care dollars will be spent on health care, and more of the doctors and nurses time will be spent on caring for people.

    The Health Care Reform Bill is legislation that would change health care in the United States. This bill calls for the creation of health insurance exchanges that would allow individuals and small businesses to purchase insurance on a sliding scale based on income. These state based exchanges would be subsidized by the federal government the amount subsidized would again be based on income. It calls for some of the funding to come from a tax on investment income of 3.8%, an excise tax on high end insurance plans, tax on indoor tanning and a fine or tax levied on businesses with more than 50 employees that does not provide health insurance.…

    There is so little contradiction that government should be engaged in one way or another in creating a solution that gives Americans in need of medical assistance the right to life, liberty and the continued pursuit of happiness. The disagreements come in recognizing the failure of government to properly handle other socialized systems, the amount of government oversight that should be imposed, and the coverage that should be part of any comprehensive national healthcare solution.…

    First of all, a hot topic today and a conversation that will be occurring over the next 30 years will be health care in the United States and in the entire world. In my opinion, the changes that we are going to see take place in the United States under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act are going to be numerous. Not only will there be plenty of changes behind the scenes with insurance companies and health care providers, but there will be a major culture change in America as we see these changes take place. I believe this due to the fact that since an estimated 105 million Americans will no longer have lifetime dollar limits on their coverage and that 17.6 million children will no longer be denied coverage due to pre-existing conditions, then individuals and families will no longer, hopefully, be driven into poverty due to medical bills that they cannot handle. Additionally, due to the fact that people will be covered and be able to have preventative care, then I hope to see that people will no longer be flooding the emergency rooms whenever they get sick, which the taxpayer previously had to foot the bill. Moreover, there are many great changes that will take place, but the most visible changes, in my opinion, are going to be the cultural ones. First,…
