Did we Americans ever truly consent to this ambitious health care plan? Or was it imposed and engraved in our minds as the right choice of action to take.  The idea of an affordable and easily granted healthcare plan seemed like the American dream. Sadly it seems that these ideals were in fact too good to be true. We were promised universal health care and lower costs but we have only received below average results. With universal coverage the Congressional budget office has said by 2019, 23 million Americans will still be uninsured.  The premium cost was supposed to be cut for families but in fact by analysis it was increased. Then the president himself finally admitted that it would increase.
There are also many more holes in this plan. Such as to how not only it is making the newly established hospitals suffer by being driven out of practice but the families and patients of those doctors that work in that establishment. Another one is the mere complexity of ObamaCare to most people. In a poll given by CNN news they stated, “Only 28 percent of those polled said they understand the overhaul extremely or very well. The rest remained in the neutral zone.” The percentage of many other polls almost matches this exactly. So what this is telling us is that we got into something so deep, without knowing what it really was and what extent it gone to.  This isn’t entirely our fault though. In a new associated Press-Gfk poll, 50 to 39 percent of Americans opposed the ObamaCare before it was officially billed. This proves that the majority of us Americans really never consented this plan in the beginning but they still passed it. This also means we did not consent to the many downfalls of it therefore it gives us the right to oppose it now and ask for a better solution. All this health care really did for us was impose empty and false hopes.
We were given an ideal health care system with no backbone and a poorly though out process. This was a mere test of an idea that was widely idled and an act of change. Yes we need change in our system and we mustn’t go backwards but this act is not the kind of reform we need.  The only way we can ever truly hope of having a shot of this is if we repeal ObamaCare . This will restore the system by controlling costs and getting rid of the unnecessary, without costing jobs and jeopardizing care. This wonderful care was forced upon us and taken in because of the pros but in the end all there were was cons. Hell we didn’t even have a choice even with the facts. This is a wakeup call to us Americans saying WE need to act and stand up for ourselves. WE have to decide what is best for us and what is not. WE need to not be pushed around by the congress and not be told what is right. WE need to repeal ObamaCare.
