Listen to the text "Healthcare".
Shiloh and Adria share their views about private and public healthcare.
1. Shiloh: So, Adria, what do you think about nationalized healthcare in the United States? I know that most Democrats are for it, and most Republicans are against it. So, what do you think?
Adria: I think it's really necessary. After, you know, hearing a lot about the in other countries, and the healthcare system in our country, comparatively, I'd have to say there are a lot of flaws about the healthcare system in the US, and I think it definitely needed some reform.
2. Shiloh: But I think what we need is health insurance reform. We need to make sure that the insurance companies aren't as powerful as they are, that they do have more and guidelines.
3. Shiloh: But I think that healthcare needs to remain privatized, because private healthcare leads to new technology; it leads to better health care practices. If, all of a sudden, the government is paying for all of our doctors and there's no privatization, there's no capitalism, then how are things going to advance? Because , when competition between companies increases, so does the technology and the level of healthcare that people receive.
