Pros and Cons of Health Care

 Pros
1. The number of uninsured U.S. residents has grown to over 45 million 
 2.We can develop a centralized national database which makes diagnosis and treatment easier for doctors.




Cons

1. There isn't a single government agency or division that runs efficiently; do we really want an organization that developed the U.S. Tax Code handling something as complex as health care?
2. "Free" health care isn't really free since we must pay for it with taxes; expenses for health care would have to be paid for with higher taxes or spending cuts in other areas.
3. Healthy people who take care of themselves will have to pay for the burden of those who smoke, or obese people.
4. Patients may be subjected to extremely long waits for treatment.
