Answer 1

Answer:

Everyone in the United States deserves to be covered by national health insurance.

Explanation:

Quite simply, a normative statement answers "what should be?" In all 4 options, the statement 'a' is showing a person's opinion of how things should be. And that is what a normative statement is. When people give their opinions, and you cannot make sense whether they're right or wrong. They're simply put, perspectives.
