Healthcare


I read an article that talks about how the life expectancy of men and how it has grown and the gap between men and womens life expectancy has gotten closer.  As it stands right now Men averaged a life close to 77 years while women live till 81 years.  This relates to my essay because my topic is about healthcare and part of that is the aspect of life expectancy.  It is definitely a good sign that life expectancy no matter the sex is lengthing.  Surprisingly though when compared to other industrialized nations or up and coming nations the United States ranks right around the middle of the pack.  Reading this leads me to believe that the United States is on its way to enriching itself for the furture. 
 
This may seem weird but since people are going to be living longer we need to have the adequate system in order to take care of them properly.  Everyone knows that when people get older they are going to need more and more care, which means if you do not change our system that we will see more and more debt accumulate.  Hopefully  they are on their way to fixing society problems before society creates problems with no solutions.
