Many taxpayers wouldn’t have raised a brow if it hadn’t been for the bad timing of the bill which came at a time when more citizens were suffering and illegals were seen as burdens to the already cash strapped country. It also raises a question that if it covers the children who live illegally within the country, wouldn’t it act as a lure to encourage more for the parents might not be covered by the health care system but their children are automatically entitled to it.
Many holes in the provisions of the bill are too hot to handle and in these economically challenging times, it was passed to help the American public, many of whom cannot afford proper health care on their own. Future reforms for the bill would indeed be needed but during these hard times, at least children get more access to care which is enough good news.
