Response to a Capitalist America

While I understand that on of the United States' greatest triumphs is its capitalist economy, I believe that there are some limits. I do not believe that everything in our lives should depend on a competing market. This is especially relevant now because of the state that our economy is in. There is a distinct line between using capitalism to increase productivity and letting it control our lives. Specifically, I do not think that we should receive less health care because we have less money than other people. Why should the rich get a better chance to receive help if they are ill or injured? There is a difference between buying a great car and buying great health insurance. When we depend on capitalism for health care, we start to cross the line of putting a price on great service and the price of a person's well being. I do not think that anyone has the right to put a price on a person's life.
