Many young people, such as college students, do not worry about the implications of health care. We aren’t concerned by it because we don’t think that we’ll get sick. In fact, the exorbitant numbers we always here about how many Americans that don’t have health insurance are probably inflated just because of how many young people choose not to have it. They could afford it but choose not to because they don’t plan on getting sick, as a senior citizen would.
Even if we only have to tap into the health care system when we are older, we should be aware of what is happening in the Capitol building. No good can come of government takeover of health care. We as students need to be awake to these frightening realities.
