i often wonder why we dont deny health care for people who damage themselves. for example, abortions are linked to breast cancer, drug users get very ill, gays have a propensity to aids, blacks have terrible diets, fat people are susceptible to health problems, drivers who overspeed get in more accidents, old folks forget to take their medicine, children play in unsafe ways. this list is just a small sampling of behavior related to health issues that i know of studies have been done on and will back up my assertions. so yea, lets start with smokers and work our way down the list.

It looks like we are well under way to denying health care to everybody. A doctors visit use to cost a few dollars and involve you the docor and perhaps his/her nurse; today, it will cost you thousands and it involves insurance companies, lawyers, and a flock of administrators.
