Cartwright 1 Ashleigh Cartwright Ed Mashburn English 101 3 December 2008 Cosmetic Surgery: Beauty or the Beast? When it comes to the ups and downs of cosmetic surgery, a person should look closely at the procedure he or she is planning on having done. Even though each procedure has its own list of pros and cons, they can all be generalized for simplicity. Some of the most common disadvantages of cosmetic surgery are the risks and complications involved, the high price tag, and the fact that the end results can not be promised. When compared to the advantages though, they usually outweigh the disadvantages.
It is clear that allowing pharmaceutical companies to act in their self-interest with less government regulation and controlled drug approval process the patients would benefit more. As Thomas Paine once said, “Society in every state is a blessing, but government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one.” Today in our society there are tons of people wishing and hoping that a new drug will be introduced that will help cure or assist with their diseases. The drug approval process simply takes to long and creates drugs that are completely overpriced to the point of where once they are finally released they can become unaffordable to those in need. It is clear through pharmaceutical consumer
He argues that better nutrition increases resistance to infection and increases the survival chances of those who did get infected. However this has been challenged as females usually have a lower intake of food compared to men, and yet they live longer than men. The second reason for the decrease in the death rate is the healthcare the country now has improved massively. In 1900, many people would die due to illnesses that we wouldn’t see as a problem anymore such as the flu. There weren’t antibiotics and other ways to help cure these illnesses, and the ways they did have weren’t effective enough to stop people dying.
What they found out later, though, was she had failed to specify the people with normal weights had preexisting chronic illnesses or were smokers. This gave them a disadvantage. In another study researchers found that, “overweight individuals (but not obese people) tended to live longer than those of normal weight” (“You Can't Be Fit and Fat). They go on to say that not all overweight people develop diseases, but they are at a higher risk. At first, when this idea was brought up I thought to myself “yes maybe that can be possible”, but after reading several articles on it I know that it is not true.
The problem that surgeons faced was, “The so-called saddle-nose deformity was particularly difficult to treat because adding to the human body was more difficult then subtracting from it.” The surgeons attempted to build up the noses by using prostheses or bone and cartilage grafts, but these were challenging, time consuming and often not successful. Grafts were shown to not work well so doctors soon began to use a drug called paraffin, which they would inject into the patients skin and a lot easier for them because it required no incisions at all. Paraffin soon after was the go-to material choice for the treatment of the
Statistics have shown that due to these legal changes more women are filing divorces as 7/10 women have filed a divorce compared to men. Although, people are given more freedom to file a divorce, it doesn’t actually show why these changes have occurred. Another reason is that religion is in decline. Due to this more couples are getting a divorce as religion is seen as less important. In the past, divorce was seen as a negative thing, as society at the time was more religious and also churches never allowed people to remarry.

If one takes the time to research and follow a few simple tips, one can greatly reduce the medical dangers related to receiving a tattoo. A concern that most people have when thinking about the procedure is the safety of getting the tattoo. Getting a tattoo can be safe as long as one does some research subsequent to receiving the tattoo. The most serious procedure one should research is the tattoo parlors sterilization measures. Since the needles of the tattoo gun pierces the skin, some blood will be produced; the bigger the tattoo the more blood, which is why it is possible to pass blood-borne diseases.
Since these regulations have been enforced in nine years abortion had dropped by 18 percent. A major reason that so many abortions are being performed is due to financial services that provide money for these types of procedures. But the truth is that to have an abortion it is way too easy even with all the regulations that have been enforced. Some states, but not all have a law saying there has to be a parent there, and this causes a drop in abortions from 13 to 19 percent. There are even free abortions allowed to be carried out.
Obama Care is all about fixing some of the flaws we have in our health care system, and making health care affordable for the public. Although we are the richest country in the world no many of us could afford necessary operations such as covering hospital bills for intensive care surgeries for ill babies, or bypass surgeries for coronary patients (Lawrence R. Wu, 001). If the plan goes into effect there will be decisions made by many to seek preventative care; that before it didn’t have health insurance and wouldn’t take the chance of being turned away or racking up medical expenses. Although having this plan would restrict some of the criteria insurance companies use in deciding whether or not to provide coverage for an individual or not in the end I
