September 22, 2010. Big Changes to your Health Insurance.

In the CNN news I read and article about changes that are being made in our health insurance. Many people may be asking if this is a bad change or a good beneficial change. Well the answer is yes this is a good and beneficial change in our health insurances. What has changed is the age limit of people that are eligible for health insurance and what the health insurance companies are supposed to be covering and what they are allowed to be covering. And now your own job(s) are also supposed to cover their workers with health insurance. Even the little shops or self owned companies don't actually have to provide their workers with health insurance but have to pay taxes. Now what my main concern is, is everyone elegible for health insurance? Like in class today in the class discussions I mentioned how most of the illegal immigrants are coming to the United States just to get benefits from our government, while most U.S. citizens don't even have health insurance or benefits and yet the U.S. citizens have to pay taxes in order for benefits to provide others. I think that isn't fair for the legal citizens. So my question is, if the companies are to provide their workers with health insurance does this mean that even if their illegal immigrants will they also be provided with health insurance? And for the legal U.S. citizens these health insurance changes could mean great opportunities since not all U.S. citizens have health insurance.
