Cobertura Médica: Que opinan los candidatos

CoberturaMedica

El principal objetivo de los debates presidenciales es que los candidatos tengan la oportunidad de exponer sus ideas, goles, y medidas. Desafortunadamente, en años recientes, los debates empezaron a ser mal utilizado para atacar a la oposición.
No es sorprendente que los votantes tengan dificultad a la hora de elegir al candidato ya que los ataques empezaron a tomar el centro del escenario dejando atrás lo que realmente importa. Ejemplo claro es el caso de las coberturas médicas.
Cuáles son las ideas de cada uno de ellos?
Cuando le preguntaron a Hillary Clinton, cuál fue su mayor fracaso político, la candidata inmediatamente contestó que fue no poder aprobar la cobertura médica universal en los noventas. Clinton destaca que el acceso a la medicina es un derecho que todos debería tener – a un costo razonable.
El contrincante de Clinton en la primaria demócrata, Berni Sanders, dejó en claro que su postura es crear un sistema de pago único.
“Por qué gastamos hasta tres veces más que Inglaterra por persona en medicina? Tenemos que implementar un sistema de pago único,” dijo Sanders. “Esto reducirá el costo de la medicina para las familia de clase media.”
Obviamente, los candidatos del partido republicanos no piensan igual. Ted Cruz, por ejemplo, dijo: “La medicina socialista es un desastre. No funciona. Si uno analiza a países que impusieron la medicina socializada, el resultado fue la racionalización. Si soy elegido presidente voy a revocar inmediatamente el proyecto Obama Care.”
Otro republicano, Marco Rubio, también revocaría Obama Care si fuese Presidente. Rubio es el único candidato que demostró su disgusto con la solucion propuesta por el Presidente con acción. Marco Rubio votó en favor de un proyecto, el 3 de diciembre pasado para revocar Obama Care.

Healthcare: Where the presidential candidates stand

Commentary and analysis by Dermidio Juez-Perez
The main objective of a presidential debate is to give the candidates an opportunity to showcase their ideas, goals and views. Unfortunately, in recent years, candidates have wrongly utilized debates to attack their opponents instead.
Unsurprisingly, people have difficulty deciding who to vote for because all the attacks overshadow where the candidates stand on the important issues. Case in point: healthcare.
Where do the latest presidential hopefuls stand on healthcare? Many voters don’t know. So let’s find out.
When Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton was asked about her greatest political regret, she immediately cited her failure to get healthcare reform legislation passed during the 1990s, when she was first lady. Clinton believes healthcare is a basic right everyone should enjoy – at a reasonable cost.
Clinton’s challenger for the Democratic nomination, Bernie Sanders, has shared his desire to establish a single-payer healthcare system.
“Why is it that we spend almost three times per capita as to what they spend in the UK?… We need to pass a Medicare for all single-payer system,” Sanders said. “It will lower the cost of healthcare for a middle-class family by thousands of dollars a year.”
Obviously, the Republican candidates don’t share the Democratic candidates’ beliefs regarding healthcare. Ted Cruz, for example, has stated: “Socialized medicine is a disaster. It does not work. If you look at the countries that have imposed socialized medicine, that have put the government in charge of providing medicine, what inevitably happens is rationing.… If I’m elected president, we will repeal every word of Obamacare.”
Fellow Republican Marco Rubio also would like to repeal the Affordable Care Act – a.k.a., “Obamacare.” Additionally, Rubio is the only candidate who has showed his opposition to Obamacare with action. On Dec. 3, 2015, he voted in favor of a Senate bill to repeal large portions of the Affordable Care Act.
