This video is the very condensed version of the Obama health care reform plan. In his speech, President Obama assures the American Public that there will be no denial of coverage for a pre-existing health condition nor will there be any money added to the government budgetary deficit. This will be accomplished by medical experts checking up on insurance companies to eliminate fraud and wasteful spending. Also, the President plans on making insurance reforms for small businesses such as creating an insurance exchange, providing tax-credits based on needs, and creating a not-for-profit public health option.

This video is great in that it concisely points out the main topics of Obama’s Health Care Plan in a way that is easily understood. I honestly haven’t researched this plan yet and didn’t know very much about it before watching this video. From the information provided by this clip, Obama’s plan seems to be beneficial for all Americans whether they have health insurance or not. I liked how he pointed that by having a choice either to stay with their current plan or choose the universal health care plan that it may make the primary companies treat their clients better to keep them from switching. Another major component of this plan I agree with is not denying people due to pre-existing conditions. People should not be rejected because they were born or developed a condition, especially if it was out of their control. I was glad to hear that this plan will assist senior citizens; to me, it’s dispiriting to see and hear about older people who cannot afford or have to pay large amounts of money for prescriptions when they do not have sufficient incomes anymore. Lastly, I think it was beneficial, especially on his part, to call attention to the fact that this plan will not add to our deficit seeing as we are trillions of dollars in debt already!
