The popular position on healthcare in Metropolitan Business Academy is universal healthcare is beneficial because it makes the fees that citizens have to pay to insurance companies more affordable and lowers costs. The majority believes that universal healthcare enables prevention of diseases and illnesses, while also circumventing costly emergency care. Most students feel that everyone has the right to healthcare. I found two sources that explains the issue in depth. The first article describes how now that the presidential election is over, citizens of the United States are really pushing for the Affordable Care Act to go into full throttle. The Affordable Care Act requires every citizen to pay for health insurance. Citizens are urging President Obama to inform the public more about the Affordable Care Act and eradicate the low level of conceptualization. The second source that I found gives detailed descriptions about the pros and cons of universal health care insurance. These sources connect to Metropolitan Business Academy's stand on the issue because both sources highlight the reasons why people are supporting universal healthcare, which is the popular stand. I think that the students support this position the most because they want themselves and their families to be protected, even if they do not fully understand what healthcare insurance entails. I do not think that the students are informed about this issue because from reading the article I posted, citizens are dissatisfied with the low level of understanding about the Affordable Care Act. I do not think that Metropolitan students know what premiums and medicare are, despite them being mentioned in the popular stance. Although I believe that the Metropolitan student body has a low level of conceptualization, I also think that the students have high moral awareness. They know that if a parent or loved on fell ill, they would want them to get the best care and recover as soon as possible. I think that the popular vote on healthcare stems from the familial values and ideals of the students. To me, this shows how much our morals and ideals affect our political opinions.
