In recent years, the matter of
health

has become controversial. While some people are against the idea of these basic

control

This
essay is aimed to explain the reasons behind the view that
companies
should not run the
health
care
system
.
To start off, when
health
services
are in the hand of people who want
profit
, citizens can be charged extremely high prices for simple things
such
as a visit to the physician.
That is
because
companies
put
profit
above all, so they will not
care
about the
quality
of the
services
they give to the general public. To illustrate, in America where most healthcare
belongChange the verb form

to private
companies
, the
cost
for medicines and other
services
is much higher in comparison with that in European nations.
Consequently
, when American citizens experienced any
health
issue, they will not want to be admitted to a hospital or even call an ambulance due to the
cost
.
Moreover
, when the matter of
health
is in the hands of corporations, they will try their hardest to earn the most
profit

material and assembly. To give an illustration, millions of mechanical ventilation machines have been sent from China to India in the Covid-19 pandemic, some of whose components are replaced by lower
quality
, less expensive alternatives.
Thirdly
, with the
control
of corporations, the
health
care
system
will be monopolized by a small number of big
companies
, which limits the
patientsChange to a genitive case

options for where and who they can be treated. As monopoly in
health
care
prevents the emergence of a more efficient
system
, patients still have to pay more because there
isChange the verb form

no more options. To give an example, Johnson & Johnson holds a lead in developing medical devices, pharmaceuticals, and consumer packaged goods, with 2 more
companies
that
control
the
health
care
systems in America.
To summarize, due to the
cost
,
quality
, and monopoly of medical
services
and products, I am against corporations having
control
over the
health
care
system

Some countries have introduced a
law
to limit working
hours
for
employees
. Why is
this
law
introduced? Do you think it is a positive or
a Remove the article
show examples
negative development?
A number of nations have imposed a
law
restricting the number of
hours
employees
can spend at work.
This
limit is made because of the declining
health
of
office
workers
. Personally, I believe that
this
law
is a beneficial development.
To start off, in recent years there is an increase in
health
problems caused by sitting too long in an
office
. The main cause of
this
is the lack of opportunities for any physical activities or exercises of
office
workers
, which is due to overtime and long work
hours
. To illustrate, without any
time
for exercises,
employees
can suffer from obesity, joints inflammation, and cardiovascular diseases.
Consequently
, governments have to restrain the business hour to give
employees
enough
time
for exercises to maintain their well-being.
Moreover
, work-life balance is
also
crucial, as a lack of communication with family or friends can lead to psychological issues, which hinders both society and families. Having a chance to take
care
of themselves can boost the productivity of the
workers
significantly, as well as prolong their available work span.
In addition
to
this
, more
time
with their kids can greatly strengthen families bonds.
Hours
that must be spent in offices can be utilized for taking
care
childrenChange preposition
show examples
, as they require a lot of
care
.
To summarize, imposing restraint on the duration of the
office
hour brings about many benefits in different aspects of societies. As
workers
have more
time
, they can do more exercise to maintain fitness and improve their relationships.
