Health Care Argumentative Essay

All my life I always had a desire to help people especially in a medical way. Because I believe that sometimes saving lives is more effective in a place of medicine instead of an office where almost nothing gets done. I will be writing my argumentative essay about the U.S. government's role in medical care/health care. I am hoping to prove to those individuals who worry that the government will take away our affordable health care and are wrong about the government changing that policy. There is a lot or argument going on about health care lately. For example, these current debates of affordable healthcare within the political spectrum. Sure there is a lot of left wingers and right wingers going on and on about this topic on yes for affordable

citizens the healthcare they need. According to the National Academic Press, the government has sponsored six major government healthcare programs known as Medicare, Medicaid, the Veterans Health Administration program etc. (NAP 2002) Most of these programs were constructed in the year 1965 by the 36th president of the United States Lyndon B. Johnson. This shows that the executive branch of our government worked really hard to provide affordable health care for people who need the appropriate health care they need. Although there may have been some problems with taxes and the affordable medical care. It depends on the certain states in the country, like California for example. According to Drew E. Altman, the taxpayer's uprising started in California and extend across the country, sudden budget cuts in federal aid to side aspects within the government, and the economic downturn, state and local governments are being required to cope with substantially reduced resources. Nevertheless, spending for health remains big business in state and local and even federal governments in today’s society. (Drew E. Altman
