1. Which theory of justice is more plausible — libertarian or egalitarian? Why? (Explain each first. See pages 338-339.)
Libertarian theory of justice says that according to the book that the advantages and disadvantages ofsociety must be allotted in a way that does not curtail personal liberty. Egalitarian theory of justiceaccording to the book, maintain that because every person is of equal value and is worthy of equal
moralconsideration. I believe that libertarian theory of justice is more plausible because you get theadvantages and disadvantages of an argument.
2. Does the US provide the best care in the world? Why or why not?
Yes, the United States provides the best care in the world because we are the highest country financiallythat we can pay to get things generated fast and easy and knowledge can quickly be grasps. While inother countries from social media and the news you can see how poorly their health care is, we havepeople from our country going out and helping them become better with our technology from the US.
3. Do libertarian theories favor positive rights? Why or why not?
Libertarian theories does not favor positive rights because there are only negative rights that obligateothers not to interfere with a person obtaining something.
4. Do people have a moral right to health care? Explain why or why not.
People in fact do have a right to moral health care. Having health care will benefit a lot of people in the long run. Every citizen from any country should be obligated to have health care.
5. What is Daniel’s argument for a moral right to health care? (Explain it.) Do you think it sound? Why or why not?
Daniel’s argument for a moral right to health care is he I totally for it because he believes people is rightto equal share of the goods and services countries provide.
6. Do you agree with the view that if you don’t have any money, you shouldn’t be entitled to any medicine? (Explain why or why not.)
I do not agree with the view that if I don’t have any money, I shouldn’t be entitled to any medicinebecause rich or poor, no money or if you have money, you should be able to get medicine when
you’re inneed of it. Some people cannot even afford over the counter medicines because of certaincircumstances. I believe if it is prescribed by the doctor it should automatically be covered.
7. What should be done, if anything, for the millions of Americans who lack health care because they cannot afford it? (Explain your view.)
What should be done for Americans who cannot afford health care, the government shouldautomatically
waive the payments. I believe this because if you go see a personal or professional doctorand they prescribe you something that will help you to get better expensive should be paid for.
