Healthcare reform

The United States is the only industrialized nation in the world not to offer health care to all of its citizens. The most powerful nation in the Western Hemisphere and arguably the world is unable- nay, unwilling- to provide all of its citizens with access to health care. The United Kingdom has a national health service in which tax money is pooled together and used to pay government employed health services. Canada has a similar system, but instead of paying insurance providers through the…

All Americans should not be entitled to healthcare because it could be harmful to our nation’s future. If everyone was entitled to healthcare, it will increase debt more than it already has, cause socialism, raise taxes, have doctor shortage, and over usage/ abuse of health care. If everyone was given the right to health care, it would increase debt. We are already in debt. Obamacare already caused us to go into debt, the increase of federal deficit could be a larger cost than Obama care…

The solution I agree to the most is the National health insurance. I believe that with the National health insurance in which government health coverage for all citizens is a good solution because a lot of people do not cure their sickness due to not having insurance. They do not have insurance due to the lacks money that they make because of their social class. A factor of not having insurance they do not get to go to the doctor to get cure which then allows for the consequences to be deadly.…

Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) provides health coverage to more than 43 million children, including half of all low-income children in the United States. The federal government sets…

overseas banks, instead of spending on the poor. So, the government should take action to overcome this issue. Debt services of developing countries' debt to banks and governments can limit government spending on the poor. For example, Zambia spent 40% of its total budget to repay foreign debt, and only 7% for basic state services in 1997. One solution to help poor countries has been debt relief. Zambia began offering services, such as free health care even while overwhelming the health care…

We keep Lincoln’s promise for the veterans by, paying for their GI Bill, if they are fighting in Iraq, Vietnam or something, and something really bad happens to them, like them breaking/losing their arms or legs, or if they go into a coma or something, the government pays for that, because they care about our veterans too. Whenever the veterans get home, we can throw parties for them whenever they walk through the door, to make them feel like they are welcomed back, and that they are loved. We…
