Health Care Persuasive Speech

Decent Essays
I love Kofi Annan! My name sake. I really like your entry this week Georgia. As a native of a developing nation I can tell you one of the biggest issue is health care. There is limited regulations on the do and don't in the practice of medicine. Do you know that buying control or schedule two drug in Ghana is as easy as buy OTCs here in America? The health care system is very poor and people die from preventable and treatable diseases more often than not. I like that you said about the need to regulate and cut on spending.

    Poke here and poke there, diabetics have to prick their fingers every time they want to eat or they have to at least 3 to 4 times a day. But a little background information, when I was 7 years old my parents noticed that I was going to the bathroom quite a bit, but also drinking a lot of water so they took me in to get me checked out. Then after many test were done and feeling all weird my blood sugar was 860 (that’s really high) and told us that I was a type 1 diabetic. A type 1 diabetic is someone whose pancreas doesn’t work at all or very little that it can’t keep up with all the sugar and carbs you put into your body, so you have to take shots of insulin, to keep every thing under control. So since I was 7 years old I have been a type 1…

    Chuck Boyce sends letter to U.S. Senators with ideas for Healthcare Reform Republican Senate candidate Chuck Boyce today announced that he would be sending out a letter to U.S. Senators regarding the Healthcare bill currently up for debate on the Senate Floor in Congress. While Republicans have the numbers in the Senate, the party seems to be split on how they reform healthcare properly while also fulfilling their campaign promises to ‘repeal and replace’ Obamacare. For seven years, the American people have been waiting for this campaign promise to be fulfilled with a better healthcare bill to make it more affordable. In these letters, I will include concrete ideas that I believe should be added to the current healthcare bill, which would make it more reasonably priced and accessible.…

    Oh Council of Music, the time has come to address a grave and dreadful issue regarding the vile and insolent outsiders who have been invading our own practice rooms. We have a policy that you have set in place which truthfully states: “practice rooms are reserved for students only.” We also have in-room rules that declare: “no eating, close the door, don’t touch the AC, and turn off the light when done.” However, these infiltrators rebelliously break most to all of those laws, and they shouldn’t even be entering because they’re not even students-even if they may insist that they are!!!…

    Tammy, you are right in today's world of health insurance that is a great deductible and is almost never heard of. It seems like people who have union jobs typically still have really good health insurance coverage. I know someone who has a union job who doesn't have to pay any monthly premium at all. I think it's great that some people still are fortunate enough to have lower more reasonable deductibles and copays, I just wish somehow that it could be offered to everyone. Also, happening more often today is the removal of insurance coverage for dental and vision care, which I think is really upsetting as it is important in helping to maintain optimum…

    First of all, it seems like everything we do in modern society will somehow link us to some form of cancer down the road. Think about it. Everywhere you look someone is warning you about a certain product or a certain hidden ingredient in your food that will "surely" lead to cancer in the future. Sure, there are endless studies that support factual links but at the end of the day, if we can't cure cancer how can we predict it? Just because you carry the BRCA1 mutation doesn't mean you are definitely going to get cancer.…
