Some of the economic problems with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act [also known as the Obama Health Plan, or perhaps Obamacare a little further to the right] are described beautifully in this short paper. It's about a five minute read, so not a huge commitment.
Questions for thought:
- Assuming you support the PPAC in general, do you consider this design, under which the accounting for the bill is done under the presumptions that employers will not drop their health plans but the economic incentives strongly urge them to do so, to be a misfeature?
- Assuming you support the PPAC in general, how would you modify the bill to avoid these problems?
- For everyone, why or how did the bill get written this way?
