Will one dry. It raises the iconic question, are you better off than you were four years ago . The rising answer for our nation is an unequivocal no. Jobs have been lost, hours have been cut, employers have been forced to drop coverage their employees were happy with, premiums have skyrocketed, millions have lost coverage they were happy with. Obamacare has hurt medicare recipients by cutting about 156 billion out of Medicare Advantage. And this cut was a grave miscalculation. Medicare advantage is a shining Success Story that millions of seniors, like my mother, rely on. In short, its a program that allows you to receive your coverage from a private provider using funding from medicare. This has encouraged providers to compete for business by tacking on all sorts of Valueadded Services for seniors. For example, one of the reasons my mother picked her current provider is because in addition to good doctors, they pick her up, and they drive her to her appointment. This sort of competiti
We are dramatically increasing funding for Veterans Health care, including hundreds of millions of dollars to serve veterans a rural areas, as well as the unique needs of our growing number of women veterans. We are restoring access to the a health care for the half of a million veterans who lost eligibility in recent years. Since there has been so much misinformation out there about Health Insurance reform, let me say this, the one thing that reform wont change is Veterans Health care. No one will take away your benefits, that is the plain and simple truth. Host that was the president from five years ago. In may of 2014, what has changed . Or what has not changed .

National security and americas future. My third suggestion, very simple, very clear, be humble. Stay humble. By virtue of your unique experience here at the Naval Academy, you have much, much to be proud of and confident about. But if confidence gives way to arrogance, both your superiors and subordinates will respond, and it wont come out well for you, nor should it. Humility is about respect. Respect for others. Give credit to others and remember you will never ever know enough, youll never know enough or be as smart or as good as you any you are. Someone else will always have something to teach you. In the wore of one petty officer, lots of enlisted have a lot of pride in what they do. And a little bit of humility on the officers part to be able to say every now and then, i dont know what do you think, goes a long way. These three tools, personal interaction, understanding humility, theyll all help you both personally and professionally. But always remember that the first principle

But what some call correcting a historical accident i call corporate welfare for certain mule tie National Companies with large math capitalization and access to Global Capital markets. The companies also have strong backing by foreign governments. Why . With so much riding on the success of this auction would the commission add to the complexity and risk lowering auction revenues in order to allow a favored few to buy the spectrum at below market rates. If this set aside is so critical to wireless competition why may it only be triggered if the commission hits a certain revenue target. Wireless providers have many strategious decisions win or when not participate in auction, including lowband auction, when and where to invest and build, whether to focus on urban or rural markets and what mergers to enter into.
