In the meanwhile the little child at Troezen on the other side of the sea had grown to be a man. His name, Theseus, was in every

body's mouth, for he had done great deeds of daring; and at last he had come to Athens to find his father, King Aegeus, who had never heard whether he was alive or dead; and when the youth had made himself known, the king had welcomed him to his home and all the people were glad because so noble a prince had come to dwell among them and, in time, to rule over their city.
The springtime came again. The black-sailed ship was rigged for another voyage. The rude Cretan soldiers paraded the streets; and the herald of King Minos stood at the gates and shouted:

"Yet three days, O Athenians, and your tribute will be due and must be paid!"

Then in every street the doors of the houses were shut and no man went in or out, but every one sat silent with pale cheeks, and wondered whose lot it would be to be chosen this year.

–“The Cruel Tribute,”
James Baldwin

I have to write two small paragraphs on Should government provide health care? can someone help and just give me their opinion o
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

I would say that yes government should provide health care.

Explanation:

Start off your first paragraph with your opinion and add one reason. An example would be, Government should provide health care because reason 1. Discuss reason 1 in the first paragraph. For the second paragraph start the same way, I think government should provide health care because reason 2. If you have text then include quotes. In one of your paragraphs include a counter claim. Basically say, Some people may say government should not provide health care because (insert reason). Then say, this is not a realistic reason because..... At the end of your first paragraph write a transitional sentence such as, government has many other reasons to provide health care or something along that line. At the end of your second paragraph write a concluding sentence. For example, government should provide health care because reason 1 and reason 2 prove that it would be beneficial.  One reason you could use I thought of right away was so that people are able to care more about helping their child, significant other, mom, dad, etc get better than worry about how much money the life saving procedure is going to cost.  A reason you could say to not provide health care, is that insurance would most likely fight procedures more and it would be difficult to get treatments because if everyone can now get procedures they need for free, some people may not be accepted because they are not in as dire of circumstances. Overall, a general rule of thumb I use is pick the side that is easiest to support not what you necessarily agree with.
