Government Involvement in the Pharmaceutical Industry
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper discussing anticipated increased regulation of the pharmaceutical industry. Everyone expected to pay more than they would like for their prescription medications in years past, but the former Burroughs-Wellcome component of the current Glaxo-Wellcome generated a public outcry when it first marketed AZT® as the first - and only - drug treatment available for AIDS patients. AZT was priced far higher than any of the company's other products. Little did we know then that the formula on which AZT's pricing was set would become the norm. Government payment involvement already has worked to put the price of many prescriptions out of reach of those not receiving government subsidy themselves, and further government involvement promises to restrict market competition even more. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Health Care as a Right
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper arguing that access to health care is a right, rather than a privilege. There are those who maintain that health care is no more a right than is the "right" to drive fast cars; far more subscribe to the view that access to health care is a basic right of all people. This paper echoes that position. The paper suggests that neither employers nor the government needs to be central in the debate over health care reform, but that individuals need to be given control through the use of medical savings accounts and vouchers for the poor.
