RIPTA Argumentative Essay

The essay, “Gouging the Poor” by Barbara Ehreneich ridicules the current health care system and speaks for the unfortunate without health insurance. She adopts a sarcastic tone to appeal to the audience about the unethical way the hospitals are treating the patients. Ehrenreich’s first-hand experience of no longer having health-insurance and her use of evidence make her argument about the health-care system compelling. Throughout her piece, Ehrenreich uses many sources that establish her credibility and appeal to ethos, as well as build her argument.

SRT1720 Description: EC50: 0.16 μM SRT1720 is a selective activator of SIRT1. Previous in vitro and in vivo studies using various cancer cell models show the role of SIRT1 either as an oncogene or a tumour suppressor gene. The oncogenic potential of SIRT1 is exemplified by studies indicating that blockade of SIRT1, like other HDACs, triggers growth arrest and apoptosis in breast, colon and lung cancers.

Poverty ridden homes have negative effects on adolescent life across the board. Often times, poverty from the outside is identified as not having adequate funds to achieve all the things that an individual would aspire to earn. It is always left as that, and nothing further. Insular poverty is defined as, “groups of people who are poor because the circumstances of their lives trap them in social islands in which nearly everyone [is] poor.” Nearly every person trapped in an environment from which they are deprived from the American Dream, career opportunities, and most importantly an adequate education.

(insert intro paragraph here) The painful tone of the excerpt progresses into healing, suggesting that accepting the loss will bring an end to suffering, no matter how great. Seeing the fading apparition of her newly deceased lover, Satsuki is engulfed by the raw despair she likely felt when news of his death had first reached her, and it manifests in the fervently grieving quality of a passage shortly afterward. After all, she recounted the experience as “a ray of light piercing [her] heart” (do I put a page number or line number here?).

Robert M. Hensel, a young man who was born with Spina Bifida once said, “There is no greater disability in society, than the inability to see a person as more.” This quote speaks great measures as it is the truth. Many persons of this society rarely look beyond a person’s disability; instead they tend to see the disability first, followed by placing barriers towards that person. As a society, we must begin to recognize that person for who they are instead and not what is on the outside. According to the 42 U.S. Code 12102 (1992), a disability is defined as, “a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities of such individual; a record of such an impairment or; being regarded as having such an impairment.”

Equality isn’t about being special. It’s about being ordinary. Physical disability whether congenital or acquired during phase of life demands time as a person loses independence, social image, relationships, pre-existing roles , loss of components of his/her identity. Combating with adjustment to these loses requires strong will power and so these people use their extra sense achieved during this phase to make a way for themselves and succeed. Livneh and Antonak (1997) define, “Psychosocial adaptation to chronic illness and disability as the final phase of an adaptation process during which the individual achieves a state of reintegration, positive striving to reach life goals, positive self-esteem and demonstrating positive attitudes toward

Disability refers to the disadvantage or restriction of activity caused by way society is organised which takes little or no account of people who have physical, sensory or mental impairment. As a result such people are excluded and prevented from participating fully on equal terms in mainstream society. There is no universally agreed definition of disability. Historically disability was seen primarily as a medical condition ,with the problem located within the individual. This medical or individual model was challenged by disability activists who conceptualised disability as primarily a social phenomenon.

There are endless ways to divide humans into various categories; sadly, people predominantly do it in a prejudice or malicious way. One separation in particular is that between people with disabilities and people without disabilities. In the July 2012 Value for Money and Policy Review of Disability Services in Ireland, Ireland’s Department of Health states a goal of, “Full inclusion and self-determination for people with disabilities through access to the individualized personal social supports and services needed to live a fully included life in the community.” This goal would help decrease the disadvantages of people with disabilities and help make them more socially included within society.

My sister and I were coming up the stairs and my sister went to pet my dog but he bit her on the hand and would not let go so started to yell and kick my dog not to be mean but to get him off of my sister. That night I so vividly remember and in the Story it shows the same kind of love so I would say that the theme of the fictional story Rikki-tikki-tavi by Rudyard Kipling is that the love of your family can help you to be brave even when you are scared. Rikki Tikki is a very brave character in this story. He bit, indeed, but did not bite long enough, and he jumped clear of the whisking tail, leaving Nagaina torn and angry.(para.29)This shows that because the family loved him he saved them by fighting Nag. This character trait demonstrates the thesis because he is loved so know is kind of paying them back.

Two Harvard academics, Susan Starr Sered and Rushika Fernandopulle wrote the article The Morale Hazard Myth. They also were the two authors of a popular book that discussed health care coverage in the United States “Uninsured in America”. The article primarily discussed 2 issues in healthcare that Americans are facing. Along with Americans not having health coverage, there is also an issue of moral hazard. Moral hazard is the concept in health care that says that once someone has insurance they will overuse it and abuse health coverage.
