The State Action Doctrine

500 word discussion response. 250 words per each numbered paragraph below. 1 citation per each number below

1)

The State Action Doctrine is an interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment. The Fourteenth Amendment essentially says that state and local governments must adhere to the constitutions bill of rights that “no state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws” (Cornell, n.d.). The state action doctrine basically reinforces this, and specifies that the constitution only applies to government action, and not private. One key thing to remember about the constitution was that its intention was to protect the people from government intervention. But, as a private citizen or company, I am not obligated to grant you constitutional rights such as freedom of speech or protection against searches. Before the Civil Rights Act of 1964, private companies could discriminate against people for a litany of reasons, however they saw fit. But once the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was enacted, not even private companies could discriminate against people for their race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.

Effects of Wealth and Health

Watch the video and read the following prompt to answer the questions.

Make sure you watch the video English Researcher https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUay9DV__G0

In the U.S. paying for care is the question but you are able to buy what you can afford and your doctor thinks you need. In countries with care delivered or paid for by the government these decisions are often made elsewhere. Here is a researcher discussing ‘how’ the decisions are made.

One way to look at the US system is to consider that rationing (who gets what) is determined by if and what type of insurance you have while in other systems rationing is determined by decisions on what type and when care is given.

In simpler terms in the US those who can pay can have anything they, or their doctors, think is best. In most European countries everyone, regardless of ability to pay, can have what the government decides.

Think of who benefits in the US System and who benefits in the European system. Write a 400 to 500 word paper on who benefits and who does not in each system. A hint is look back a year ago when Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones, someone we assume is wealthy and lives in Europe, had heart surgery and where he chose to go.
