In my opinion the freedom of choice in the United States is so backwards.
First of all the freedom of choice that we have are as materialistic as we can possibly get. I mean come on we have the freedom of choice of 101 soft serve ice cream flavors at Sunset grill, or we have the freedom of choice what new cell phone that comes out, pick one of the new 100 models. Or how about the numerous unhealthy, diabetes prone, trans-fat, 1500 calorie meals at one of the hundreds of Fast Food chains we have in the United States. Not to mention of the countless number of cigarette brands in the United States, or liquor stores or gun stores. If you ask me, we have all the freedom of choice in the wrong industries. We have the choice of thousands of things that can potentially kill us: cigarettes, liquor, guns, and fast food.
I mean come on the couple of choices of freedom that we could use is political parties, oil companies, broadcast news channels, banks.
It’s pretty pathetic in this time of age of increase of poverty, inflation, health problems, terrorism, racism, price fixing and corruption, that the citizens of the United States of America have only two political parties to choose from.
But we don’t have a single choice of freedom that can save our lives. What is that you may ask? Well that my friends is health care. The one of many things this country needs is a health care plan for its citizens. Not one health care is available upon citizenship; no you have to pay extra for that. With the increase of obesity, cancer, aids, and other health problems you would think the health of the United State Citizens would be at the top of the list. But in Canada, they have granted all of their citizens with health care since 1984 don’t you think it’s about time The United States caught up?
