Obamacare, what's your stand? 

Michael Tanner wrote a review on Obamacare in his post "Obamacare: Nothing to Brag About". Michael brought up the attention on how this plan may ruin the lives of many people in the United States. Instead of the promise by Obama to lower costs of health insurance, Michael Tanner informed us on the fact that health insurance premiums are slowly rising. "Healthy young people in the individual or small-group insurance markets can look forward to rate increases averaging 169 percent." As a young student, maybe working at a part time job, there's no way we could afford insurance with that kind of increase. Michael Tanner states that, "80 percent of young adults aged 18–29 not eligible for Medicaid will face higher costs, and that 20- to 29-year-olds on the individual market not eligible for subsidies will see their premiums increase 42 percent." How could a young person, like myself, afford insurance at such high cost? Many of us barely get through the day, and others live pay check to pay check. Such increase would devastate families, therefore it is "nothing to brag about".

OBAMA DEPLOYS KIDS IN PUSH FOR GUN CONTROL

“It’s a free country but I recommend there needs be a limit with guns. Please don’t let people own machine guns or other powerful guns like that. I think there should be a good reason to get a gun. I think there should be a limit about how many guns a person can own.”

This is a very interesting article on a very important matter that Obama has been trying to pass, "Gun Control". For quite some time now, Obama is been trying to pass a law for gun control because of the many shootings that has been happening. Many believe that this is some kind of trick Obama is playing that can put the country at risk, but many believe that this is a good thing. Wether or not this is good, we all need to take a look at what Obama is trying to do. In this article, Obama will be using children to push for gun control, for children plays a big role in this topic.
