Abstract Probabilities can be utilized in a wide range of real life scenarios. In this text, I discuss a number of real life scenarios that would require the computation or estimation of probabilities.

U.S. Health Care System In our uniquely American health care system, there are two basic models for the provision of health care. The Market Justice Model, which is the primary model in American health care, is based on the American notion of free enterprise and individual responsibility. Privately funded by insurance and/or cash payments, this model involves private practices and institutions providing health care to individuals. The model assumes that health care is like any other good or service that can most rationally be purchased by an individual with his/her doctor's assistance and with little or no governmental involvement. In sharp contrast to the Market Justice Model is the Social Justice Model, which regards health care as a unique system of basic goods and services to which every member of a society is entitled. The Social Justice Model of health care assumes that equitable health care requires significant government involvement, central planning and allocation of basic health services for which the individual's ability/inability to pay is irrelevant. Existing in American society in the forms of Medicare, Medicaid and Workers Compensation, the Social Justice Model necessarily involves significant governmental involvement on the Federal and State levels. Based on severely conflicting notions, Market Justice and Social Justice Models coexist uneasily in American Society, with Market Justice being the more dominant model at this time.
