Affordable Care Act

Based on my analysis I believe that the Affordable Care Act is beneficial to overcome poverty in the United States. This aims to overcome poverty by providing subsidies for the consumers, which will help them to lower the total costs of their households. This includes the mandate to provide healthcare facilities to the individual who is not being able to pay insurance and healthcare bills.

As a nursing professional caregiver, I believe that this should be the Affordable Care Act is important to save many lives. Sometimes there are likely chances that many patients may not be able to pay the hospital bills at the moment, but their treatment is especially important, for that purpose, Affordable Care Act may be helpful in such situations ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"1aI9efTH","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Silvers, 2013)","plainCitation":"(Silvers, 2013)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":360,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/smYQhi21/items/AB6MDWNF"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/smYQhi21/items/AB6MDWNF"],"itemData":{"id":360,"type":"article-journal","container-title":"Annals of Family Medicine","DOI":"10.1370/afm.1567","ISSN":"1544-1709","issue":"5","journalAbbreviation":"Ann Fam Med","note":"PMID: 24019270\nPMCID: PMC3767707","page":"402-405","source":"PubMed Central","title":"The Affordable Care Act: Objectives and Likely Results in an Imperfect World","title-short":"The Affordable Care Act","volume":"11","author":[{"family":"Silvers","given":"J.

This will make a huge impact on those people whose economic income is lower than others, and they do not earn that much to pay the hospital bills in emergency situations. Moreover, another component of this Act is said to be the population working in the organizations. The current climate of the politics in the United States is said to be repealed because of the bankruptcies and the budget deficits that have been caused by many subsidies including this act ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"eB7TQxil","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Reisman, 2015)","plainCitation":"(Reisman, 2015)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":354,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/smYQhi21/items/IIVCP2PX"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/smYQhi21/items/IIVCP2PX"],"itemData":{"id":354,"type":"article-journal","container-title":"Pharmacy and Therapeutics","issue":"9","page":"575","title":"The Affordable Care Act, five years later: policies, progress, and politics","volume":"40","author":[{"family":"Reisman","given":"Miriam"}],"issued":{"date-parts":[["2015"]]}}}],"schema":"https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json"} (Reisman, 2015).

I believe that this Act should be continued because this helps a number of people to get medical facilities and another reason is that, this will be helpful in poverty reduction in the United States. Affordable Care Act should be repealed because this has caused a huge budget deficit. The act has resulted in the huge tax penalties, that indirectly cause imbalances in the economy, therefore it should be repealed ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"Ijok1dgw","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Fitzgerald et al., 2017)","plainCitation":"(Fitzgerald et al., 2017)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":353,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/smYQhi21/items/WNVCI456"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/smYQhi21/items/WNVCI456"],"itemData":{"id":353,"type":"article-journal","container-title":"Journal of Consumer Affairs","issue":"1","page":"27-53","title":"The Affordable Care Act and consumer well‐being: Knowns and unknowns","volume":"51","author":[{"family":"Fitzgerald","given":"M.

As a result of the uncertainties, the market prices in the United States may increase which will make a huge impact on the lower-income families.
