The Uninsured & Underinsured Population

The United States is considered the richest country in America, but when it comes to the healthcare system, the United States may be one of the poorest. According to the World Health Organization the United Stated 37th for the best healthcare in the world and that is one below Costa Rica. This proposal will also give a little insight on how our healthcare system compares to other countries and the issues of how just how and why the United States are number 37 on the list for the World Health Organization. This proposal will require a full re-evaluation of our healthcare system, compare the system to one other noted country and look into how we may be able to incorporate some of their strategies into our healthcare system so that we can do a complete overall makeover to accommodate the uninsured and underinsured American in the United States. If there is affordable healthcare that would reshape America by providing affordable, stable healthcare available for those in need then lets step up and put it in place. America is losing more money by not providing affordable healthcare and the government is making exceptions and excuses for a budget deficit that just need to be tweaked with a fine tooth comb. I think there is way too much unnecessary money flowing in the US for there to be issues with the healthcare system, such as the millions of dollars given to stars, athletes, and musicians. It does not seem ethical for one person to live in a 15 room house, own 15 cars and buy gifts 50 and 60,000.00 dollars while the government fight like hell not to provide tax paying middle-class, or retired elderly to have to struggle with such the healthcare system. It would be a sad situation if people began to start suing the healthcare system because their family members became more ill or passed away because they were denied affordable healthcare to take care of
