Explanation:
In operant conditioning there are two strategies to modify behavior, through reinforcement and through punishment. Reinforcement is targeted to repeat a wanted action or behavior and punishment is used when a certain behavior wants to be eliminated; there are two types of reinforcers, positive and negative, a positive reinforcer is a pleasant stimulus that is given when the desired behavior takes place, a negative reinforcer, however, is taking away or avoiding an unpleasant stimulus as a reward when the desired behavior takes place.

Health care has always been a highly debated issue for several reasons. The first one is whether it should be controlled by each state or the federal government and the solution to the debate could be that every state were able to control their local health care programs but with a federal agency to supervise it. This takes us to the next issue; Politicians argue that no single healthcare program will cover all Americans. And they have a valid point, but if every state could create and control their local health care programs, it would be easier to reach a wider number of citizens with a health care program. The next issue of the debate is whether those programs should affect tax rates, and of course they would, but only at a local level, not at the federal level. The last point of the debate is that the medical professionals are opposed to such programs. Of course they are against it, nowadays medical attention costs a fortune, and doctors receive great sums of money for their services. There should be a balance in the cost health care, I am not suggesting that it should be free for everybody, only to the most needed ones.
