More Opposing Viewpoints Response

Well both of these articles have strong points that kept me bouncing back and forth between which viewpoint I believed in. Some strong points that the health care is to expensive side brought up were how even now we are paying and tremendous amount of money for health care now so how would Obama’s health care bill that is adding millions more not raise up those prices. Something else was how the authors mentioned that if this bill passes then think of all the doctors and nurses who went to that schooling for years only to be paid less and have their hospitals overflowing with patients. The hospitals would be way to crowded because people would go to the doctors more frequently if they had health care to cover their payments.
While some points made by the other authors really changed my mind and they did that by making me think morally. One of the main points having to do with the morally correct thing to do, if you don’t think about the money aspect of this business you know that everyone should have the right to their health and have a chance to do everything possible to live. Some thing else that really changed my mind was the statistics shown in this article, they proved that the United States is paying way too much on our health care. I also liked how they compared it to other countries, this showed me that a working and fully functional health care system in other countries can work and be less expensive.
Both of these relate to my subject because I’m going to be writing about one little girl and her challenges facing Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis. Something that struck me when I was researching this subject is how families are able to pay for the medication, physical therapy, etc. All of these things cost a great amount of money and could easily put a family in debt, that’s where these subjects come into play. Both of these subjects could and would change the way that family could function, get treatments and make their payments.
Well overall I personally believe that we should find a medium, health care should be more easily available and our government should take control of the insurance companies. This will help make the payments lower and allow more people to purchase health care. But this will also allow the doctors to not be too underpaid and it won’t raise the taxes too much as well.
