This is an
Argumentative Paper
Already, questions arose in class about health care in the United States.
1)What are the problems
facing health care today?
2)Why does the United States trail other developed
countries with regard to mortality rates?
3)Within the United States, why are
there such wide disparities in health care and wellness?
4)Do you see the
inequities within health care subsiding in the near future, or are the problems
plaguing health care in the United States going to persist?
5)Whose interests are
served by the current structure and hierarchy of health care in the United
States? What roles do profit and capitalism play in health care?
6) Is there a
need to return the focus of health care back to the patient and the patients
needs?
Our article from (JAMA), we will have another reading (Warner)
and we watched a film (Money and Medicine). So in total, we will have three
shared sources. Essay must be three pages in length,
and must critically review all three sources. Limit and focus your
discussion by organizing your essay around one, two, or three of the questions
listed above, and you will interrogate each of the sources in response to these
questions. This is an argumentative paperyou are arguing for a particular way
of understanding your group of texts. You should assume you are writing to an
academic audience who may or may not have read your sources.
Try to think of the texts and film as a way of actively
entering a conversation about health care in the United States. While preparing
to write, you will need to ask yourself certain questions about your sources:
In what ways do these sources present similar pictures of the world? In what
ways do they contradict each other? What questions or problems do they produce?
Are there ways in which you very much disagree or very much agree? What are the
relationships between sources? Do you see one source as more important than
another? Do you see sides forming?
IF you can watch the film Money and Medicine.. that will be great.
