Framing the
Issue
It is important to know that there are at least two sides to every
issue. Each side (opinion) should be based on facts that are
supported with convincing, reasonable evidence that is credible and
current. Before you form an opinion, consider the pros and cons of
the issue. Doing this can strengthen your position on the issue—or
it can result in a change of opinion on the issue.
For this week’s discussion, complete the following:
Issues to Choose From
Should the US government provide universal healthcare?
Yes it will help business grow. Many people have trouble affording universal health care. When they spend that much money on it, they have less money to use on groceries, rent, and customer goods. Thus, healthcare stops our country from being the best it could ever be.
Yes healthcare is a human right and we can afford it.
The US, is the only industrialized nation that doesn't consider healthcare a basic right of its citizens. Obamacare is a step in the right direction, but he should have proposed Medicare for all.
Yes, universal health care would benefit the country.
Countries with universal healthcare systems not only Payless per person for health care, they also have better healthcare options. People would not have to worry about going bankrupt if they got sick.
If healthcare was non profit and a guaranteed service, I don't think there would be enough innovation to keep up with the mutation rate that we would face.
