Jobs are leaving the country due to outsourcing. $1.25 Sunday, January 22, 2017 Mrs.President, The Affordable Care Act has provided healthcare for over 20 million Americas (Lee & Luhby, 2017). By reforming this law, millions of Americans can lose their healthcare. The law has created hardship for insurance companies and some individuals (Lee & Luhby, 2017). However, reforming the law without another policy in progress will cost even more hardship. An option to benefit both parties is to adjust the flaws of the ACA. Insurance companies & providers should have more freedom with supervision of the government. Also, americans that don't have health insurance, should receive a tax reduction. ECONOMY HAIL TO THE CHIEF OPPOSING SIDE OPPOSING SIDE IMMIGRATION ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION Vol XCIII, No. 311 OPPOSING SIDE Immigration in the United States has it benefits. The economy benefits from immigrates coming to the states and accepting jobs (Kane & Johnson, 2006). Immigrates allow business owner to keep jobs in the states because they accept low-paying, hard labor jobs (Kane & Johnson, 2006). Outsourcing to other countries reduced the jobs available in the United States. The United States has over 14 million jobs sourced from outside the country. This has raised the unemployment rates significantly (Amadeo, 2017). If those jobs re-enter country, 5.6 part-time workers will be able to convert to full-time workers (Amadeo, 2017). NATIONAL SECURITY Immigration has become major concern in the recent years, due to terrorism around the country. The government and citizens believe that immigration creates a risk for National Security. On the opposing side, stands the business owners. Business owner are able to compete with other companies because they get low costs to create their merchandise (Amadeo, 2017). U.S businesses that outsource also hire employees at overseas wages that save the business money (Amadeo, 2017). AFFORDABLE CARE ACT REFORM UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WASTING GOVERNMENT FUNDS OUTSOURCING HEALTHCARE Issue Many think that the "Obamacare Act" needs to be reform immediately. On January 20th 2017, the first day Donald Trump assumed duties as President of the United States. He signed an executive order to roll back on some aspects of Obamacare Act (Lee & Luhby, 2017). The reform would not throw away the law completely but, will change aspects of the law significantly (Lee & Luhby, 2017). WORK CITIED PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS Healthcare is one the most biggest industries in America. The unnecessary funds for healthcare is even bigger. The government spends over 750 billion dollars on unnecessary funds pertaining to healthcare (Fung, 2012). Some of the most notable areas were unnecessary services, inefficient delivery of care, excess administrative costs, inflated prices, prevention failures, and fraud. (Fung, 2012). In order to resolve this issue, supervision needs to increase to ensure proper procedures are be followed. Frauds, administrative costs, and inflated prices should have be prevented if employees and patients follow the facility's Standard Operating Procedures. Over 10 million undocumented immigrates live in the United States (Kane & Johnson, 2006). This is weakening the country's national security (Kane & Johnson, 2006). Authority can experience issues if they have no control of people exiting and entering the
