Some conjectures about access to US health care for disposed people

This paper hypothesizes the extent of access to health care by disposed people, particularly in the US. The disposed are people 'thrown away' as used-up commodities. This paper briefly examines the theoretical idea of disposability. It then presents the basic results of new research showing that a sample of Americans sees that people in several different occupations are equally liable to be disposed. The section that follows proposes that the access these disposed people have to the US health-care system is minimal overall and is not likely to improve. Because this total grouping has not previously been studied as a whole, these hypothetical findings are partly based on subsets of the disposed: the poor; those without health insurance; and the unemployed.
