A women died in the waiting room in Brooklyn's largest psychiatric hospital.This news shocked many people in the country. According to the report in the article"the woman who Died in the waiting room",this woman was strugling nearly an hour before her death was found because of the medical delay.It said the country has had many problems in sovling metally illness since 1960s,especially when patients came to be poor,they didn't even get a chance to be treated with regula medication. Its true and I totally agree with what Ken Duckworth,a medical director of the national Alliance,said that "the mentally ill typically wait twice as long for treatment as other patient population do".This country really should pay more attention to the care of mental ill patients since this is not just a personal matter but it will effect the development of the country.
First of all,Morally,those mentally ill patients are parts of the regular patients. They should be treated as same as other patients. The society can't keep them away or treat them differently.This is not right.We are human beings,and we will naturely become worried as we see our family members or friends getting sick.I believe it is the same feeling that those mental ill patients'families have been suffering.My grand father was dying in a lung cancer,and my family secured him till the very last second of his life. It seems to me that we, as his family,suffered more mentally pain then he did when we saw him becoming thiner and weaker, till he can't even talk.What I am trying to say is that illness is not only the pain that hurt patients but it also pain their families.
Every society has its problem to work with and we are the people who can help to work that out. Nevertheless,to give mental patients more medical care is to help raise the society to a highter level.

Revision of the blog 1
In the article"an education in citizenship"the auther (name isn't mentioned)excerpted from Chicago Tribune that shows a new law which allows young people in the U.S. to pay as same amount of tuition fee as in-state resident did in illinois has been triggering lots of arguements. Many people embrace this new lawsuit since they assume the federal tax paid by their parents support the part of the university's budget while the other people claim this is depriving U.S. citizens' benefit. As for me, I disagree with this change and my reasons are in the following.
First of all, as the definition of the word"in-state"shows , in-state rate is obviously for the people who are residents in that state. That is a part of benefits for being a citizen there as well as the reward they should have for constantly paying tax in that state. Otherwise those in-state residents are not being treated as a way it supposed to be. Most importantly, people who cross the state to another one for college education should be prepared to do whatever is demanded in that state. It is like a quote said "you dont pay,you dont play"if they think the college tuition rate is un affordable or too expensive,they can just choose to stay in their state, go to a college and pay lower in-state tuition fee. Nevertheless, Requesting for a lower tuition rate is legitimate. No doubt, nobody wants to be over charged for doing the same thing. However,the solution to those issues sometime is not as easy as some people think it could be.Here are some examples that can better explain why people sometime are treatly differently. Lets say in new york. why people living in Mahattan mid-town have to pay outragiously higher price for everything such as food,clothes,apartment rent and even parking fee. The answer can simply be district. Again, why senior citizen can enjoy lots of financial aid that young people can't. It is because of the age. It is the same thing when we talk about why some students have to pay extra tuition fee.Its because they are not residents in that state, and neither they nor their parents ever contribute tax to that state.Therefor,allowing out-state students enjoy in-state benefit isn't a good way to go.
Secondly, if that tuition rate change happens in Illinois,it may result in unifying the college tuition rate in the whole country, and that is going to be a big problem for the country. As far as I know, U.S. goverment has already contributed tons of moeny to college's expenses every year. Facility,equipment, professors'salary, students'loan and scholarship,etc. Those things are mostly supported by the goverments. Therefore, when the tuition rate gets unified,.which is same to say everyone in the U.S. enjoys the in-state college tuition rate, the goverment will probably cut off the cost of faculty'salary, equipments, and raise the tax accordingly and so on. As we can see , the results are so unexpetedly worse.So in order to prevent those unwanted results happening, this new state law should be abandon.
In conclusion, I understand nobody wants to be charged extra fee for doing the same thing, but simply unifying the tuition fee will trigger more negtive aspects. I believe the U.S.goverment has been working very hard to try to find a solution.And most of the time, the fact is the solution is not as simple as people want it to be.
