One of the most prominent issues regarding healthcare reform is the question of whether health insurers should be allowed to deny coverage to individuals who have a pre-existing condition, or whether they should be forced to provide them coverage no matter the cost. This issue is one of the most controversial issues, because voters and politicians throughout the government have become very polarized. The debate, politically, has become stagnant and reduced to simple attacks on the opposing sides
As American transcendentalist Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, “money often costs too much”. This famous quote can be interpreted in many different ways; it seems very logical in parallel to the idea that money can result in a high social and moral cost. As individualistic as American society is, the preference for monetary stability has become a higher priority for Americans than general societal health and stability. It is then not a surprise that the Affordable Care Act (ACA, also known as ObamaCare)
health coverage in many ways. First, ObamaCare now accepts any American no matter if they have a pre-existing condition. Before ObamaCare if a Citizen did have a pre-existing condition, health insurance companies would either reject the person or increase the price of their health coverage extensively. ObamaCare makes it possible to provide affordable health insurance to those with pre-existing conditions. Second, ObamaCare has new coverage rules for applying. A citizen can only apply for Health

twenty-four million Americans uninsured by 2021 (Jacobson, 2017). The possibility of insurance companies raising premiums or refusing to insure certain people due to their costly preexisting conditions, like they formerly could before Obamacare was enacted, is a potential threat. If the pre-existing conditions provision is repealed, 52 million Americans could be at risk of being denied coverage in the future (Jacobson, p.4). Trump’s repeal would impact Medicare as well by increasing premiums and payments
forms of expression. The site planning within the development is well analyzed and implemented as stated, but the viable connection between the suburban area and the realm of the city has become muddled due to poor means of egress leading to the pre-existing city. These two ideological signs produced by the new urbanist’s utopia, have lead to the failure of this concept, and if not remedied the idea of new urbanism will have limited progressive future. Local vernacular architecture should be analyzed
Many Americans each year suffer the effects of not having health insurance. Most cannot afford it or they are denied for ridiculous reasons from private health insurance companies.

Healthcare in the United States is must be given to everyone, but it’s the matter of affording to pay the medical bills, and being accepted by an insurance company
Nurse Janet Runbeck used to operate a free clinic in a janitor's lunchroom. When the Affordable Care Act came into effect, she no longer had to. The reason being is that her patients had access to health insurance, and they could no longer be denied by the insurance companies. The ACA has taken people with serious medical problems out of lunchrooms, and into fully staffed, well-maintained hospitals.
