Hello everybody!
Let me tell you what I think about public helath care.
Public health care
Austria has public health care,
meaning that essential health services are paid by the government. What
services are regarded as ‘essential’ is always being debated. It is not always
clear if a surgical procedure is really needed and should be paid by the
government. My first example, which I will give you is a tattoo which the patient says is causing him mental
distress. I think such a tattoo can be really a heartache, but I’m against
payment by the government, if it hasn’t to be removed immediately because of
health reasons. If you decide yourself for a tattoo you have to be aware of the
consequences, especially when you don’t like it anymore. Let me give you another example, which is a
breast reduction on a 13-year-old who is being teased in school because of her
breast size. In this case I think a breast reduction should be paid by the
government, because this girl isn’t able to do something against it. This is also true for, cosmetic surgery on an actor’s large nose, which she
claims is haring her career. It’s not her fault. She earns her life as an
actress and if she won’t get a nose surgery, her job would be affected. In my
opinion the government should also pay for this surgical procedure.
What do you think about this topic? Please let me know what you think about it.

Hello Jakob,
AntwortenLöschenI think you are a very adult for your age. So I agree with your opinion. Your mindset is very cool and sophisticated.
See you later alligator
Hi Jakob,
AntwortenLöschenI completely agree with your statement "If you decide yourself for a tattoo you have to be aware of the consequences". It is so true and the government has other problems than people who regret their tattoo!
See you soon

Hi Jakob,
AntwortenLöschenI cannot agree with your opinion about an actor's large nose. I think it concerns a cosmetic operation and the government should not pay for it.
