People taking responsibility for their own lives?? Naaaaaah. That’s the government’s job!

It may sound calloused to say so, but the lifestyles of many (most?) ordinary Americans invites sickness and disease. I'm not saying that they deserve be sick--nobody does. But, they are harming themselves--often without even knowing it!

Staying indoors all of the time (vitaman D deficiency), overeating (obesity, not to mention the poor quality of diet) and lack of activity (becoming "couch potatoes") doesn't bode well for our health now or in the future. Those who are currently engaged in any or all of the above are inviting an unpleasant future.

My ‘healthcare option’ is the V.A.
Like so many other American citizens, I ‘paid’ for that with service to my country in a time of war.

Now that I can use the services of ‘off-base’ doctors, the bean counters that serve those doctors, can never get it straight to bill the V.A., and constantly mis-bill medicare, creating an unpaid balance, which they attempt to charge to me, monthly!!

Now, if the whore wants to monkey with your healthcare set-up, just keep this information in mind.
(Yup, I wrote that intentionally, too)

What I would like to see is a study of the medical bills over the lifetime of people who lead healthy lives vs those who live unhealthy lives.

A person who lives a healthy life may find that at age 75 they have a nasty disease that results in hundreds of thousands of medical bills to treat.

A person who lives an unhealthy life may be dead at age 45 and the medical bills over their lifetime are minimal.

I am not for any of this stuff. Humans aren’t perfect and never will be. This is just another way to GIVE the government more control and turn more people into self gratifying little snitches and holier than thou jerks.

“Why is this a bad idea?”

Put simply, it’s a racket. If the insurance company is making you pay for other people’s bad habits, and the government is making you pay for insurance, bad habits quickly become illegal. Your habits are everyone’s business and you owe it to your fellow man to behave as dictated, or be punished.

Insurance should never be government mandated. There is only one sure outcome: loss of freedom. That is the intention.

Jezebel and the other marxists want everyone (except the ruling elite) to have the same coverage. So no one (except the ruling elite) would have an advantage over another. No matter how hard you work, you would get the same benefits as the indolent slacker so loved by the democrats.

There is no way the privileged class will have the same benefits as the ordinary people. They will, as they have already, give themselves special favors so that they pay less and get more, at our expense. The privileged class is current and former politicians and rich individuals who give money to the democrats.

I continually see/hear adverts about food insecurity and millions who go to bed hungry every night. Those folks must hide indoors, because whenever I’m driving through poor areas, most of the visible peeps range from chubby to obese.

If your health is so great then skip buying health insurance altogether. You won’t need it, right? Oh, wait, your health isn’t so perfect, your genes are not godly, you’re just as clumsy and prone to accidents as anyone else, and you will suffer a medical complication that requires medical intervention.

Seems like the bitching about other people and their health issues is childish in nature.
