1. Remembering that "Universal Coverage" doesn't mean "free healthcare" (Switzerland, Germany, France, Japan, Taiwan all have universal coverage and use a mix of insurance and government coverage similar to what we use in the U.S. to accomplish that), answer the following questions: a. In your opinion, should healthcare be viewed more as a right (as in, "everyone has the right to basic healthcare") or as a commodity (as in it is another product/service in the economy to be bought and sold)? b. Is Universal Healthcare Coverage possible in the U.S.? And, if so, how could we achieve it?
2. The United States spends far more than other countries on healthcare. Interestingly, when queried in opinion polls, the American public believes that we should actually spend more, not less, on healthcare. How would one evaluate whether this spending is worthwhile? What reasons might there be for being concerned about the validity of such assessments?
