Shouldn't every U.S. citizen be able to walk into a doctor's office and obtain medical care when their sick regardless of their socioeconomic status? What sacrifices, if any, would we as nation have to make in order to put a universal health care system into place?
As a rich a nation as the United States is, millions of Americans are currently without health care.

Most everyone will concede that all Americans should be able to secure medical care when necessary, however, the question of how to meet this objective continues to be a debated issue.

Consider being a self-employed single parent of a child diagnosed with asthma. Consider applying for health care insurance for your child and your child being denied coverage on the grounds of a "pre-existing condition" that categorizes him/her as "high risk". In other words, the insurance company denies based on the likelihood that your child with asthma might actually require asthma related medical attention that the insurance company would have to pay for.
