This article focuses on the idea that making healthcare cheaper might seem better off for the present, but has negative long term effects for both the citizens and government. By making medicare packages less expensive, no one has to pay a lot of money upfront, but people receive less benefits and are more likely to have health complications down the road that could have been avoided by shelling out more money to begin with. However, the counter argument is that at least people are receiving any healthcare at all, and raising prices would just eliminate the number of people eligible to purchase a plan.
