Is Obama care neoliberal?
Yes. Affordable Care Act funnels tax dollars to the insurance companies by giving subsidies to individuals to buy health plans.
But they were directing those public companies on how it was spent. Neo Liberal is about lassiez faire capitalism, not social capitalism
For sure. It is a market-centric solution that gave billions of dollars in additional profit to existing health insurance corporations.
Especially since the public option was killed.
Even though neo Liberal is about hands off government. Obama Care directed private companies on how they were to behave. How can that be neo Liberal?
They're only hands off when it comes to things like social safety nets. Obamacare was basically corporate welfare.
Yes
No
