My first article 'Obama's health-care plan: What it means for you' addresses the issues of Obama's new health care plan.
http://www.smartmoney.com/personal-finance/health-care/obamas-health-care-plan-what-it-means-for-you/
The article predominantly addresses the financial reasons for opposing Obama's plan and how it will be the 'consumers who end up paying the price' for treatment. The focus is very much from the perspespectives of the doctors and health-care providers and how lower pay towards hospitals as a result of Obama's plan will eventually lead to very few hospitals being able to provide treatment for patients. As a result those patients will have to travel further to find the next available hospital.
Although the article is persuasive in the way it addresses the reader directly hence the use of 'you'; it is rather limited in its perspective and doesn't admit the problems in the health-care system prior to the plans and neither does it suggest a better alternative.
My next article is pro Obama health care plan.

It emphasizes on why 'Obama's Health plan is better'. It lists 5 ways in which Obama's plan will lead to a 'more efficient medical system'. 1. Learning. For better quality treatment. 2. Rewarding. For doctors based on the help they give to patients. 3. Pooling. 4. Preventing. Freer access to preventive services maintaining health and saving money. 5. Covering. Lowering health care costs making insurance affordable.
Although the article is predominantly democratic in continually attacking John McCain being a 'prior to the election' article. It is convincing in highlighting the potential for health care improvement.
