Heathcare Discussion Response

The class discussion on Friday went a lot better than I had expected. I thought that I was going to be the only one in the class who disagreed with Obama's healthcare plan. It turned out that a lot of people didn't agree with it and others had a lot of the same opinions as I did. It was nice to not feel shot down by any of the arguments. I do feel bad for the ones who are shy and don't like to talk much. If they are near me again like this week,  I will try and speak up for them so they can have a turn. At one point the class did get a little heated and had to be calmed down , but it didn't affect how smoothly everything was running. A couple times we went off subject about Iraq and homeless people, but somehow we were able to bring it back to healthcare. I really liked how polite everyone was when they  talked over someone else. I am really excited for our next class discussion. It was very fun and exciting.

  1. I like the fact that you would speak up for those that are shy. Tells me so much about you as a person. However, those "shy" students will have to one day speak for themselves. Might as well learn to do it now. Excellent job.
