In many societies in the world, the population is ageing rapidly and this is leading to an unsustainable increase in the cost of public healthcare. A nation’s population should pay for their healthcare provision in the future. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your knowledge or experience.

Health

is one of the basic need of every human and the majority of countries have the policies to fully take

care

of all the

health

requirements of their population.

However

, with the advent of modern

health

care

technology, increasing

age

is considered a burden on the budget and many lawmakers are talking against it nowadays. They opined that nation should pay themselves for

this

service or should pay heavy taxes at a young

age

to utilise

this

facility. I strongly opposed

this

opinion and firmly believe that

this

is a basic right of every person to enjoy high standard medical facilities at every

age

.

Firstly

, as we all know, it is the common man who works day and night to build up the

country

's economy from early ages.

Moreover

, he pays heavy taxes to make the

country

a better place to live and stays abide by the law. All

this

, he does for the betterment of the State, so definitely it's the duty of the government to take

care

of him in his old

age

.

Secondly

, a

country

is founded and

then

run and prosper through the hard work of its people and not by itself. The development of the population is considered to be the development of the

country

. If any state failed to contribute to the development of its people, it will be considered a failure of the

country

. No one can snatch

this

basic necessity from old

age

people. In a nutshell, it is the right of every citizen to have accessibility to the best of all

health

care

facilities and it should be available to them from the

first

day of their life to their

last

day. There should be no doubt that

this

old population is our asset who had long served our

country

and should be given its share .
