Healthcare being more like other countries?
Americans tend to want to be more independent and think everyone should be in charge of themselves. I am all for giving everyone affordable healthcare but I don't think the people in the upper class will be willing to give money to help others

The public does follow the values of "ignorance is bliss", but we deserve to be informed about issues that affect us. If all the media focuses on is celebrity relationships and Trump's "terrible" policies, we'll never hear about issues that affect us and bring about unnecessary change.

I think that issues should be more publicly announced to give people the chance to hear about it and be more involved.

I don't think that there is enough time to vote on every single regulation that can come about.

While I think that Michael had a creative idea, I don't think that it's the best idea. Forcing retirement-aged people to work themselves to death almost is NOT the solution to America's debts,

If we didn't have Social Security, there would be so many citizens who would be left to live in poverty and not having enough to live properly. The gaps between social classes would be a lot bigger.

I feel that if we didn't have SS, a lot of the country would become very poor, or unhealthy. SS does help a lot of people, but it also screws a lot of people over. Not everyone has had as great of a job, so their savings would not be very much, and they would suffer their last years.

While increasing the age at which someone gets social security may be harmful to some people but something needs to be done to improve social security so that the money doesn't run out.

It started out as trying to help people during the Great Depression, but now people treat it as something they can rely on at 65. By the time they reach their age for Social Security, they can only rely on this and this only due to old age.

People retire for more reasons than age. For example, health problems. I think the time gap of no money Emma was talking about would be really dangerous in those circumstances.

I think that Social Security (SS) started as a good thing, but became something other than intended. I think that we should focus on improving the ratio of retired:working.

I've found with my limited years of experience that if you are in a group project (social security) its always bad news. but if you just work by yourself (401K or personal savings accounts ) always give you more incentive to better by yourself!

Lots of Immigrants come to America for a job, especially,  but having a lot of immigrants is a great idea, they get paid minimum wage, depending if they are US citizen or not.

# data[].attributes.body
You can say yes and no on this topic. If the immigrants are illegal, then they are able to get welfare, and other government services, but they do not pay taxes. Although, if we had legal immigrants that actually didn't work under the table, then yes. It would help, because then they would put into the government services.

I agree with Emma, I believe the cons do not outweigh the pros of allowing immigrants to come into our country. If theyre an immigrant, they're goal is to have better oppurtunity and to work and I dont see how that would hurt our economy.

# data[].attributes.body
it would help if we have lots of immigrant coming in but in the long run it could hurt more than it helps because we would be having to pay taxes for those immigrant as well as citizens when they get older

# data[].attributes.body
I think that immigrants should pay taxes if they reside in this country, but I also believe that they should not reap the benefits of SS. Non-citizen, non-beneficial.
