Analysis of The Affordable Care Act
This paper has already been started but I am not on track with format and did not follow the required outline.
Reflect on what you have learned about the key structures, systems, roles, and processes that embody our national government. Think about the strengths and weaknesses, advantages and disadvantages, and positive and negative impacts of these aspects of our democracy. Use what you have learned so far to evaluate a specific policy of our national government and recommend ways to enhance what works and repair what is not working well. It is important that your Final Paper utilizes your previous research and assignments, including the feedback that you received from the Ashford Writing Center in Week 4. The assignment should also showcase what you have learned in the course. While your previous assignments will serve as a strong base for this assignment, it is very important that you implement feedback from your instructor and the Ashford Writing Center, as well as further expand on the material. Appropriate transitions and headings are needed to ensure a cohesive Final Paper.
The Final Paper should utilize the Final Paper template (see attachment) and be at least six pages in length (not including title page and references) and based on your previously submitted assignments. It is important to utilize APA Style Elements headings for major sections of your paper in order to ensure that the paper is easy to follow.
