Those with self-inflicted liver disease, self-inflicted lung cancer, self-inflicted diabetes, self-inflicted heart disease, AIDS from gay sex, et cetera, are driving up medical expenses, including my cost of insurance. Obviously, we all die of something eventually, and many could not have prevented the disease they currently have. But millions of people could have prevented their costly disease if they had been more responsible.
You know what? We all could prevent any diseases we have and prevent death by simply not being born. We have no more self inflicted health problems per million then existed 150, or more, years ago.
Also, WTF does your statement have to do with people being forced to buy health insurance? Nothing what so ever. Forcing people to buy auto insurance is unconstitutional as far as I am concerned and forcing them to buy health insurance is a major disaster and entirely dictatorial.
If you really want to know the reason health care cost so much turn your attention to Medicare and Medicaid type insurance. They are direcetly reponsible for the increase in health care. Do a little research and please don't ask me to do it for you. Health costs started to rise dramatically when Medicare was introduced, believe it or not.
Your sanctimonious, topsy-turvey, cold-blooded way of thinking is a perfect example of what repels average folks about conservatism.
Good Grief....did you get up on the wrong side of the bed today????
If not and you are like this all the time-—
you need professional psychological help!
