Should education and healthcare be free of charge and funded by the government,or should it be the responsibility of the people to pay for these services?
The improvement of the life level due to the economic development has led people to focus more on their spiritual life,with their education and healthcare inclusive,but who has to be responsible for the cost of education and healthcare has been raised onto heated discussion.
Health care and education,two of the basic elements in social life,are always in the concern of the public.Some people suggest that the service in these two fields should be paid by the government and be free to the public; while others believe it to be the duty of the people to pay on themselves.As to me,the coverage on education and healthcare should be made the duty of the government while leaving some special demands to be burdened by individuals.
Government free provision of education and healthcare can demonstrate their responsibility in serving the people.Having fulfilled their obligations to the country in the form of taxes,citizens have the right to enjoy the service in return from the government,with education and health care being the two basic ones.Also,as the duty carrier in promoting social development,by guaranteeing the right of education and health care,the government are enabled to encourage citizens to make more contributions to the society.
Government’s investment on these two fields is beneficial to ensure social equality.Being free of charge,every citizen can take advantage of these social services,without the worries about being treated unfairly due to their lack of social resources,such as their social status and human network.Besides,this will be helpful to reduce the difference between the rich and the poor,at least in these two basic rights,creating a more harmonious social atmosphere.
Admittedly,if the citizens are wealthy enough,or when they demand some special service,or when the government is too limited in its budget,individuals’ sharing some of the cost may also seem to be reasonable.However,rare cases of particular requirements do not represent the general pursuits of the public,and limitation in budget does not free the government of its accountability.
To sum up,government should provide free education and healthcare to the public and pay the cost.Only when people are better educated and healthier in physiques,can the society be more harmonious in atmosphere and dynamic in development.
