The Answer is:
Tea Party promoter Pinkey asked: “Who is more responsible for government health care?”
The Health Care Act protect all Americans from the worst practices of insurance companies. Coverage won’t be revoked, premiums won’t be arbitrarily raised and insurance companies won’t be allowed to use a pre-existing condition to deny coverage.
The new health reform law gives seniors and their families greater control over the care they receive and makes preventive care and an annual physical free of charge. It gives our government the ability to reject insurance companies' unreasonable rate increases to prevent them from unfairly raising Medicare costs.
It helps Democrats keep a promise to America's seniors, by strengthening Medicare by cracking down on fraud and waste and keeping it solvent for decades to come. And, most importantly, it protects guaranteed benefits, eligibility and the right to keep your doctor for all seniors.
It creates a voluntary program that would help seniors and people with disabilities get support to remain in their homes and communities for as long as possible.
Seniors who fall in the "doughnut hole" in Medicare prescription drug coverage have already starting receive $250 checks to help cover the cost of prescriptions. Next year, prescription drug prices will be cut in half when seniors hit the doughnut hole, and within ten years, the new law will have closed the gap completely.
Importantly, according to the Congressional Budget Office health care reform should cut the deficit by $138 billion over the next 10 years, and as much as $1.2 trillion, the following 10 years. The healthcare reform bill should bring $1.3 trillion in deficit reduction over the next two decades. A report from Congressional Budget Office indicates that the Health Care Act is the most significant effort to reduce our deficits since the Balanced Budget Act in the 1990s.
