Reflection for Class Discussion

The discussion we had in class on Friday was really helpful, in which it gave me the chance to understand how people felt toward an issue that we’re all facing. I was really interested in the different viewpoints that were shared and how questions were intellectually answered with all the sources needed to support the answers. With some actual experiences mentioned in the discussion concerning this issue, it made it even clearer and more understandable for me. There were several questions that were pointed out and got my attention, the type of questions that can’t really be answered easily, which even brought more excitement to the topic. I found out that the health care reform issue is also related to other topics in which starting with concerns upon the new health care reform, different issues or topics were brought out. Expenditures were also a part of the discussion, and viewing different opinions representing both perspectives of either supporting the act of spending more or preferring to save the money and not spend too much. In my opinion, spending is required at every step made especially when it comes to public opinion and to meet their requests. As we were taught in the economics class, nothing is really free, everything has a certain value to it, so people should expect more spending when more work is desired. For some concerns to be eased out and some questions to be answered, I found that discussions are useful and especially when it comes to issues that are related to all of us. As we all know “there is always something more to learn about”, so no matter what even when different thoughts are put together, some questions might not be answered until we actually live with these concerns.

  1. It's amazing how much we can learn if we listen to one another's point of view. I hope you share your arguments more often because you have a lot of great things to say. Nicely done.
