Healthcare should be Free

Did you know that healthcare in america can cost you up to 10,000 dollars? This is why I think healthcare should be free. Did you know in 2013 the average person spent 8,713 dollars on healthcare and 16 percent of u.s people had healthcare. Also if you need a liver transplant you better have 500,000 dollars cash because that's how much it costs. The change that needs to be made is making healthcare in america either free or much more cheaper. The costs of a transplant surgery can cost much more than you would ever expect. The total cost for a liver transplant from 30 days before the transplant was about a average of average $577,000.00, which is a big financial concern for the healthcare system, If you would need a liver transplant you would need all the money in cash. The cost of a heart transplant can cost you up to 1.4 million dollars that is more expensive than the world most expensive car. If you needed your lungs to be replaced those would be $862,000 each. Bone marrow would cost you $893,000, Your intestine would cost $1.1 million. This is why I believe healthcare should be free because no one should have to pay this much just to live another day.

The total number of people with healthcare in the united states are in 2014, 283.2 million people in the U.S., 89.6 percent of the U.S. population had some type of health insurance, with 66 percent of workers covered by a private health insurance plan. The OECD found that in 2013, the U.S. spent $8,713 per person or 16.4 percent of its GDP on health care that would be 2,465,779,000,000 if everyone paid 8,713 dollars. In my opinion that is so much money the government has so much money they could put aside for hospital bills and ect. Half the people in the united states could maybe not afford this type of healthcare insurance. This is to expensive for just a regular person!

Healthcare for uninsured immigrants is free but not for all. Nevertheless, rough estimates suggest that the nation's 3.9 million uninsured immigrants who are unauthorized likely receive about $4.6 billion in health services paid for by federal taxes. But the people who are born in the united states have to pay for there health care. All told, Americans cross-subsidize health care for unauthorized immigrants to the tune of $18.5 billion a year this is totally unfair if they get it free everyone should get it free why do they only get it for free and not everyone. The government has enough money to do this but they do not. The government is worth $269.6 trillion and they don't pay for healthcare for all. In total, federal taxpayers provided $11.2 billion in subsidized care to unauthorized immigrants in 2016.

The argument that I am trying to solve is for healthcare to be free for everyone in the united states of america Did you know that healthcare can cost up to 10,000 dollars a year. 89.6 percent of people pay for healthcare wouldn't you want them to get it for free.

In conclusion healthcare in america is to much money and hard to afford I would want healthcare in america to either be free or more affordable for the average person because the state that its in right now is way to much money. SO what if it is free to some why not be free to all!
