    The Un-Affordable Health Care Plan The Affordable Care Act is a universally mandated act that allows for every citizen of the United States to obtain healthcare at a low and affordable price (Obamacare Facts). It was created mainly to help the lower class and those who could not afford the kind of health care available at that time. This can seem to be a great way to boost the unfortunate; but with it comes the countless disadvantages and unmoral regulations. The unconstitutional values of Obama’s Affordable Care Act infringes on basic human rights written in the U.S Constitution, and forces taxpayers to pay for the inhumane procedure that leaves around 1.5 million people dead each year (CDC). America is, and always has been known as the melting pot (Joyce Millet).…

    Being a part of a presidential committee to restructure the Affordable Care Act would not be enough to fix the problem.

With this being said, there are still many issues with the ACA that I would try to fix, despite my opposition to the involvement of the Federal government. Health care and other benefits of employment were mostly unheard until Franklin Roosevelt issued an executive order freezing wages sometime during the Depression.…
