The article I chose for the topic of economic is about Obamacare. You can apply and fill the application but you have to pay your first month’s s premium by your insurer's due date, which in California’s case its January 6th. The article explains that if you cannot pay the fee by the due date your application will be terminated. Once that occurs you will have to wait to do it all over again the following period. Many people are not aware that you have to do the last step and pay the fee for it to be submitted. Also, the due date deadlines People applying do not realize that there is a deadline and have to follow it. 

This is very important because many people are being confused by the obamacare applications and not aware of the steps that are mandatory. There needs to be informations on the deadlines of each state on the front page of the website. If it wasn't for this article many of us still wouldn't be informed of the issue occurring.

This affects us because many of our parents or family members could be applying for obamacare. If we do not know the mandatory steps that need to be completed with the application we will just blow it off. Also, there needs to be some sort of section with all the deadline due dates so that those who are trying to apply can do it on time. Mandatory steps that need to be done should be made clear that they must complete or the will not be covered/insured the starting of the new year.
