healthcare

 is one of the most critical components of a healthy, prosperous society. Because of its high cost,
however

, there is an ongoing debate as to whether wellness programs should be free or whether individuals should be responsible for paying their

 fees. On the one hand, there is a belief that basic
healthcare

 should be virtually free. One reason for
this

 is that because
health

 is a fundamental requirement for a functional society, governments should front the bill for
healthcare

 services. Another reason for free
healthcare

 is the sheer unaffordability of

 services. While wealthier people may be able to pay out of their own pocket without too much trouble, the impoverished may skip going to the doctor even when necessary because they cannot afford it.
This

 results in a less vigorous society overall.
On the other hand

, there are strong arguments as to why
healthcare

 should be paid for by the individuals that use it. One argument is that having to pay for your medical services creates an incentive to stay healthy. If people feel that they can receive medical care for free, they are less likely to take care of themselves. Another related argument is that healthy people should not be subsidizing the cost of
healthcare

 for those who make poor lifestyle choices.
That is

 a person who exercises every day should not have their taxes used for the
health

 costs of a person who refuses to exercise out of laziness. Having looked at both sides, I feel that an ideal solution is for governments to reduce the costs of
healthcare

 so that everyone can afford to pay their medical expenses. If we can fix the affordability problems associated with
healthcare

 without removing the incentives to stay healthy, we will be better off in the long run.
