Here is a better serious question.
Why are there 24 million uninsured children in America?
That is what I'm reading in the papers and seeing on the news channels, however, I think that number is low.
When a child is brought into the world, it has parents. And why would patents allow themself to bring a child into this world knowing fully well they (themself) are unable to insure this child? They (themself) probably are also unable to feed this child.
Once all of us whom are citizens in America accept the fact that this problem with insurance is NOT the fault of POTUS (today's and in the pass), it is NOT the fault of CONGRESS and it is NOT the fault of insurance companies, we can all get together with a solution. That solution is for the parents of the child to be held fully responsible and accountable for the child. This is the one and only elution.
There is some reason about why child isn't covered by their insurance.
1) Some companies don't offer plan that cover child
2) The insurance to cover child is very expensive, for my father's workplace, the insurance cover child cost $890 per month, that take more than 50% of his paycheck. The insurance to cover child is usually cheaper if you work at medical care or insurance companies but not all of them.
3) Many companies don't offer insurance to part time workers, especially some people have 2-4 part time jobs, that's very unfortunately about they couldn't find a full-time job with benefits. Some companies kill benefits for full-time workers.
4) Some parents are irresponsible, that's not common as few listed above.
ACA fixes the problem for child and the families can get insurance at cheaper via exchange instead of workplace.
The skyrocketing of medical care have put companies to change the benefits, that hit child so hard.
Previously, most young adults were uninsured but it is mostly resolved by require all insurance to cover young adults until 26 years old.
The insurance companies are partially contributed to medical care problems.
