Classical Argument

So I decided to write my classical argument on health care, I know, sticky subject. But I wanted to learn more about the problems that everyone's complaining they're having with the current system. I didn't understand. So far it just seems as if the problem for most people, is price. But researching on this topic as I tried to present other alternatives to universal health care and the free market, it made me realize, y'know there are good reasons for both, but I feel like no matter what kind of choice you want to make when it comes to politics, you're going to be manipulated. Statistics are so different everywhere you go, it was really frustrating. Some democrats reasoned that universal health care wouldn't be all the expensive. Of course republicans argue the opposite. Personally I don't see how health care can ever be dirt cheap (it's gotta come from somewhere) and so I doubt paying for universal health care will make it cheaper....
But I am likewise...at least partially excited for this paper, more so for the genre translation after I figured out what I was going to do. As some of you know I'm going to do a comedy video. Parts are going to be serious, it is a serious subject after all, but I think it's also a stressful topic to think about, whether you've made a decision on where you stand or not. I'm just trying to lighten up the mood, but I think that I'm going to have a hard time making people literally laugh out loud. I'm not experienced with creating or writing out funny "lol" scenes, nor have I ever filmed anything in my life, nor do I have any experience editing film on imovie. So I'm hoping i get the point across in a way that lightens the subject just a bit, maybe a smile or two? Please if it looks like I'm going down, feel free to burst out laughing at something (I'll bribe you!). But really this paper was interesting to write. I think all of our papers have been because while we are writing and learning how to use ethos, pathos, etc. we get to learn more about life around us in general as we explore our topics. Last post, holla! :D
