The Affordable Care Act of 2010 already signed into law is slated to come before the Supreme Court this week for their decision as to whether all or just parts of it are constitutional or not. If you have not, you better sit up and take notice, because this act affects every American.
I would like to know how many of the 219 folks who passed “ObamaCare” actually read all the 2700 pages of this esoteric (seemingly to me) legislation. With that being said, I then wonder how many Americans are sitting on the fence about the ACA because most of it is too obscure to understand? Just asking…
At any rate, I think the major aspect that we all understand is that Americans will be forced to buy health insurance or face a penalty. Where will most find the “extra” money to pay for this coverage? The government will offer subsides for some coverage but when we are trillions of dollars in debt (about 16 trillion), where then will this money come from? The well never seems to run dry.
The list of pros and cons are many but on the up side, the poor will now have health insurance and the quality of their life will be improved. Regardless, this sector has to be taken care of no matter what you think of “ObamaCare.” Whatever the Supreme Court decides, for some the medicine will taste good going down, for others it will be hard to swallow.
The real point of this blog is to say that we need to come together as a nation in one accord and fast and pray. This has nothing to do with being Republican or Democrat; put the politics aside. We need to ask for God’s intervention, that He impress upon the Supreme Court His will and then buck up and accept it, whether we like it or not.
Prayer is time tested and true and must be applied to anything and everything that affects our lives; whether the affects of what we are praying about holds monumental or limited consequences. Believe it…
