The Affordable Care Act

 

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) has been one of the most controversial pieces of social legislation enacted in recent history. Much of the debate, however, has been partisan and ideological in nature. A considered discussion of the law’s successes and failures to date is long overdue.

We know the law has had a considerable impact on the availability of health insurance. More than 25 million people are now estimated to have health insurance under its various provisions. Because of the Supreme Court’s unexpected ruling that made Medicaid expansion a state choice, drops in uninsured rates diverge greatly across the country, with rates falling to the lowest levels in states that have expanded Medicaid eligibility. All told, as many as 16.4 million previously uninsured people have gained coverage since the law passed in 2010.

Gospel Gold-"Under the Blood" 06/27 by Gospel Gold | Music: Gospel Music is a shining beacon of hope, a fantastic journey of joy divine, and a triumphant victory in God that comes from deep down in the souls of God's Chosen People. The greatest melodies and the most stimulating songs have been given to this Nation and the World through the African American experience. African American Experience. When we consider the tragic, dreadful, and catastrophic experiences which occur to so many in our society- and when we tend to feel and believe that there is no way out, Gospel Music is there to?Take our Hands and Lead us On .African rhythm, work songs and field hollers - the basic elements for the spirituals. It is rhythm that drives American music: the spirituals, and by extension gospel, the blues, jazz, ragtime and rock n'roll. The Gospel Music experience cannot be told in a short story, or even in a one hour melody of songs, for it is far too rich, far too harmonious and deliberately stimulating. It is a living experience, always changing, always giving, and always becoming the foundation that gave moral, physical and spiritual support to a great and powerful people. email: gospelgold@songwriter.net cash app : $GospelGold visit the GG facebook page

FBCHS Bible Study - "For None of us Life to Himself" 05/17 by Gospel Gold | Music

FBCHS Bible Study - "For None of us Life to Himself" 05/17 by Gospel Gold | Music: 'For none of us liveth to himself ' Romans 14:7-19 That is, none of us believers; others may, but these do not, at least they ought not, nor do they when under the influence of the grace of God: they do not live, neither to righteous, nor to sinful self; they do not live upon their duties and services; nor do they ascribe their life, righteousness, and salvation to them; nor do they live to their own lusts, or make provision for the flesh to fulfil the lusts thereof, and much less to the lusts and wills of others: This verse must be read and understood in the context of the verse that follows. Paul has insisted that whatever side someone is on in one of the disputed matters in the early church, each person should be fully convinced of his or her position and participate (or not) to honor the Lord. Strictly speaking, those who associate sin with things God has not explicitly condemned are considered those 'weak in faith' (Romans 14:1). However, those who embrace their Christian freedom in that are not to look down on those who are more convicted. And, those with more restrictive opinions should not judge those who don't share their view (Romans 14:3). Christians ultimately answer to God, not to each other (Romans 14:4; Colossians 2:16–23).
