2010 Health Care Reform Bill

Just recently, President Obama has signed for a new comprehensive health reform, known as the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, into law. This new health care reform bill offers health care coverage to 32 million Americans who are currently uninsured. I found this current event to be very significant and similar to what we have recently learned in history (although this is not very relevant to what we are learning today). I found this Bill to be very important because this is merely another example how "science" and medicine is all around us. Our society is becoming more and more advanced with what we do on a day-to-day basis, and how we are changing to help our society grow.

Having this new health care law shows how much more civilized we are today. It is weird to think how people in the olden days didn't even think it was necessary to take a daily shower. Although this does not relate much to what we are discussing in class, it is always interesting to compare our modern society with the past community our ancestors once lived in.
