More on the new health care plan...

In the blog"Take Two Aspirin and Call me When Your Cancer is Stage 4" by Ann Coulter, Coulter gives her perspective about the new health care plan that the Democrats are trying to pass. Her intended audience is for anyone in the United States, her views are very conservative and anti-Democrats. Coulter has plenty of experience in the media, she has written 7 books, has been on television and radio, has written plenty of columns and has even appeard in a couple of films. Coulter obviously is not too fond of the new plan that the Democrats have come up with and she does not hold back saying so in her blog. Coulter compares health insurance to car insurance, and even to food stamps. The way Coulter presents her argument is pretty exaggeratting, yet it is pretty effective. Coulter makes a good point when she states that people would pay $200 for a haircut but they think having a copay of $20 is ridiculous, and making a point that even manicures costs more than a copay. Coulter also mentions that if we do get free health care, it will most likely be taking advantage of and it will be very unfair. Some people rarely go to the doctor, while others are hypochindriacs. On this topic, I am conflicted on what I would want. I feel like insurance is a way to pay the doctors and everything associated with health care and that there is a good reason behind paying for insurance but I am not quite sure what it is yet. On the other hand, I feel like for health, there should not be a price on it, everyone's health is important and we should not spare their lives just because they cannot afford it. In Europe, there is free health care and they seem to be doing fine with that, but I do understand that the U.S. does have different health concerns and different problems.
