can’t afford healthcare, that doesn’t make them any less deserving of it. Therefore, those who can afford it should support the effort to make it available for all. Furthermore, a free health care tax wouldn’t just be good for our conscience. A free health care tax would ultimately be better for the economy;
Have you ever thought about how many people in the world suffer from diseases but can’t afford to be taken care of? 45,000 people die annually in the U.S. alone because of their lack of healthcare. Well, with universal healthcare, this can definitely help change this all around. I am able to inform you on this possible implementation because I have done extensive research through study of political stand points and geographically for a prior research assignment as well as knowledge from the media

Currently there are 46 million that do not have health coverage in the United states and this would drastically increase to 72 million if a health reform was not passed (The Economic Case for Health Care Reform, 2012)Why the United States is the last to adopt this government mandated insurance coverage, is possibly one of the most widely asked question around
