Hello can you so a response please.
Should universal healthcare be available to all regardless of their ability to pay in the same way that the other services are available to all for free?
Argument #1:
Premise 1: Free Healthcare would make more people want to be healthier.
Premise 2: Giving free healthcare would improve the economy.
Conclusion: Therefore, universal healthcare should be available to all regardless of their ability to pay.
Argument #2:
Premise 1: Nothing is truly true, the money would have to come from somewhere.
Premise 2: Taxes would go up to afford the raise in medical bills.
Premise 3: Having free healthcare could make some people take it for granted and use it up.
Conclusion: Therefore, universal healthcare should not be free.
In my first argument, saying that universal healthcare should be available to all is due to that with having the sources to go to the doctor will give people more initiative to get healthy. With more people wanting to get and stay healthy then the economy will thrive due to less people being out due to being sick. So then in conclusion healthcare should be free. In the second argument, healthcare wouldn't be free because it would still come out of the tax payers' pockets. Then also with the free healthcare some people could just use it as an excuse to go to the doctor for not real problems and use up the resources that is provided. So in conclusion healthcare should not be free.
Here is the instructions.
Guided Response: Read the arguments presented by your classmates, and analyze the reasoning that they have presented. Whether you agree with their position or not, see if you can help them to improve their arguments. In particular, point out any respect in which a reasonable person might disagree with the truth of their premises or with the strength of their reasoning. Consider addressing the following questions: Did your classmate present a convincing argument? Why, or why not? Which part of the argument might someone dispute (e.g., premise, conclusion, structure, etc.)? How might the argument be strengthened? Make sure that your posts for the week include at least two substantive responses to classmates.
