Implementing Obamacare

This article brings to light very important issues regarding health insurance in America, and Obamacare is the newest policy trending for this situation. Throughout the article, the structure provides key support and evidence from the researcher Michael Cannon, and his emphasis on the cons truly convinces readers of his side. This insurance is not only overpriced, but it puts those of the older generations at a disadvantage because they need this support, no matter how expensive. The major issue seems to be the financing regarding the insurance, and the author brings up good points for the references of the age groups affected by the finance. In addition, the author provides a clear example with an Obamacare user, Nicole, which sheds to light the true financing involved in the inner workings of the insurance policy.In my opinion, I do not see the need of Obamacare as a huge asset to the country. It is targeting those in the younger generation, but  the older population is the one who will be needing it the most. When the question is posed, that if the cost of insurance rises young people will be less likely to buy it, it seems almost obvious that the answer is yes. Young people have not yet garnered set careers or a fixed income, and buying health insurance that is rising in its cost seems unlikely. As displayed by Nicole's example, if people see cheaper deals for health insurance, they will be more enticed by this factor than buying premium deals with Obamacare. Even though people are still debating whether to buy health insurance, it does not seem likely that Obamacare will attract much attention due to its economic downfall for customers.
