Layoffs (coming up to the holidays)

For the last past months many healthcare agencies have cut cost by laying off employees.  Which is sooo sad to me everyone needs a job especially coming up to the holidays.....but as a child I was always taught that God is my source:-)  When the hospital in The Good Life City cut 127 jobs I was like dang that a lot of people without jobs. I spoke with one lady to see how was she doing after being employed with this company for 28 years and was laid off she responded " I never let anything get me down I look at it from a positive prospective and learn from it" that let me knew that she was in good spirits  despite her circumstances. I received a breaking news alert about 500 people gets laid off I was really in Shock that's a lot of people compared to 127.  This happen in New York......

Health Insurance Exchanges...very informative information

I'm a little familiar with the Health Insurance Exchanges.  "Making Insurance Available and Affordable to Americans"  I have tried visiting healthcare.gov but as seen on the news the site is having a couple of technical difficulties:-) Due to the technical difficulties they have extended the deadline to March 31,2014 with is an extra six weeks for Americans to buy health coverage before facing penalty.  I'm still learning this new Health Care Law as it unfolds.  I believe that once the kinks are taken care of many will see that its very beneficial. 

I read an article about a self employed American had enrolled in the individual plan and he was sent an letter saying that he must purchase pediatric dental insurance and if not they will automatically enroll him in a plan.  He was like "I don't have children so why do I have to buy pediatric dental insurance." Now that was a shock to me also and I'm pretty sure that's a shock to you:-)
