This piece was very intriguing to read. This hw assignment made me think of illness and dying through a different lens. "The most nightmarish thing about our culture's practices around illness & dying is how the big insurance companies care more about benefiting themselves more than they do helping the ill and saving peoples lives. This made me think, How could this possibly be changed and come up with a few ways. This reminded me of how bad our system works and how it may not get better.

johnny i liked your writing. It's sort and it gets to the point. The line that really stands out, "What i might address differently is why all the doctors seem like they have no say on the unjust practices that are going on in our country.This made me realize that maybe our country really is corrupt and that there is some bad things going on that the govrenment doesnt want us to now about

For Arden
          The depth of your work was very good. You put alot of depth into it. The line that really stood out to me was when you said, "Lets change the focus of our attention from trying to heal those who are sick to trying to prevent people from getting sick in the first place." This is very true and stood out to me because instead of having so much advertisements for going and eating at Mc. Donalds the govt should be telling us to stay healthy and actually promote this way more than they do. This also made me realize that the way the govt. is running things doesn't seem to be helping us stay healthy.
For Shariff
            You put alot of depth into your piece. I could tell that you took this course very seriously and put alot of effort into this piece. The line that stood out to me was when you said, " I feel that Preventative medicine is something not taken seriously enough in today's culture, we talk about being healthy and eating well but how many of us actually do that? First i would like to say that this is probably very true for most. Alot of people probably aren't as fit and as healthy as they should be.Which made me realize that our culture has probably changed over the years.
