Hi. Did you forget to say that this question is about "Southern blacks ask for help, 1865"

Answer:

The authors emphasize that they were "declared" free to show that freedom was a condition and not a right. They note that this conditional freedom could be withdrawn when it was convenient and that it could prevent them from having the rights to citizenship, security and moridia when someone felt it was not necessary.

Explanation:

The article shows how southern blacks were in a delicate situation and that they questioned their freedom as American citizens. This is because the freedom that is a right of every citizen and that must be guaranteed, was given to them as a condition. They were "declared" free, which showed that their freedom depended on other people's goodwill. This left them submissive to other people who denied essential factors for their quality of life, such as the right to housing, defense, civil rights, among others.

What arguments could be made for or against forcing people to buy health insurance?
scZoUnD [109]

This is in my opinion one of the aspects that makes the central courts and the different lines of thought within a single subject so interesting. The clash of ideas that we have in this case is a perfect example.

On one side we have those who look at the current 30 million uninsured Americans, which include millions in Texas, and the undeniable success it had in Massachusetts. Most of them conclude that this mandate is a government success.

On the other hand, we can find those who believe that this is a terrible invasion of the government to the citizen's free will to choose their own healthcare options, they see government overreach, and at the same time an unprecedented intrusion on individual liberties to which there is no justification.

Unfortunately this is something that millions of Americans have been forced into. It's evident how they refused to create a public health care system, and instead give more power to the private sector.

After this short debate of ideas, I will give you one question to ponder on: Which principle is more important? Your freedom, your civil liberties, and your freedom from the government line of thought, or the possibilty of providing health care to millions of uninsured Americans?

I hope this solves your question!
