The Universal

keeping a 10 % denial rate. This is sick, how big health insurance companies treat other human beings like products. The film made the statement that the main reason why American do not support universal healthcare is because of all the communism propaganda. In Ronald Reagan’s time, he made it seem like universal healthcare is communistic. Americans should avoid all that is involved communism as well as socialism. This was thought of that time and yet these ideals still carried on to today’s…

around the United States. There are ten stories that showcase how the lack of a decent support system in health insurance can have big consequences on a person’s life. I think the book is good for any student or scholar who wants a look into the pro-universal healthcare point of view, but not for an objective idea of health care reform. Jonathan Cohn is a senior national correspondent at The Huffington Post. His articles focus…

Although universal adoption of moral relativism can be seen as counterintuitive and destructive, there are some objections to the arguments aforementioned. The main objection to be mentioned is the lack of a plain “black and white” set of moral truths. The moral truths that are mentioned in moral absolutism are not explicitly laid out somewhere, so this leaves skeptics to ask, “Are we supposed to just believe that there are certain moral truths just out there somewhere?” In a way, yes, because…

and South Africa? Does their healthcare differ from the United States healthcare system? There are so many things I have discovered about each country. Healthcare systems are designed to restore and/or maintain health. Cuba and Switzerland have universal healthcare systems. Depending on which country you live in will determine whether healthcare is free or not. As I research these three countries, I have discovered that the lack of technology, the cost of healthcare coverage, and the population…

In regards to health care in the United States, there is an immense area of ambiguous arguments and principles. There is not necessarily a right and wrong, or a “black and white” solution to the majority of health care aspects. Currently, all Americans are required to obtain and keep health insurance as a mandated component of the Affordable Care Act that was passed in 2010 by President Barack Obama. Citizens of the United States must fulfill the health insurance requirement, or accept the…

Education is Key Every person living on this planet should have the right to have an education. There is nothing a person can do without an education. Some kids aren’t even allowed to go to school or have an education. Article 26 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states that all people should have the right to have an education. This petition is to protect that human right by people that have violated this human right. We all go to school in the United States, but what about…

Article three of the "Universal Declaration of Human Rights" states "Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person." This article is violated several times through the novel with emphasis on a few excerpts. Wiesel writes, "First edict: Jews were prohibited from leaving their residences for three days, under penalty of death"(10). The excerpt proves that the liberty and freedoms are taken away from the Jewish community, with the first freedom of leaving their home to be taken…

Many United States citizens do not really understand the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act also known as Obamacare that was passed in congress without any republican signatures. United States citizens need to be informed why the affordable care act is nothing but bad for the United States. Obamacare is portrayed as a cost efficient plan, but in reality the plan is really costing the citizens a lot more money than what other countries put into their health plans. The Affordable Care Act…

lower-income population. Reddit has a great thread explaining the affordable care act, and thebalance.com has a great pro-con list explaining its effects. If you want to read an angry rant about why american health care sucks click here. Part of how universal healthcare works in European countries, is that the government is able to force insurance companies to offer competitive bids on drug pricing; the lowest one receives a contract and dominates the market. Part of what “makes america…

back on the foundations on which this country was built on, we can see that the goal was not to become a country with a socialistic way of life but be free to make our own decisions and choose the life that best suits ourselves.
