Or, how much weight you'll have to lose in order to qualify for a health insurance plan?
The government is already telling you what you can use to heal yourself, and it doesn't include vitamins you buy at grocery stores. Some states want to put a tax on sweet drinks! We need less government regulation, not more! If you fail to pay, the IRS will come after you - you've got no choice now - it's pay up or pay a fine. Getting the federal government to run your health care system is a really bad idea, according to Ron Paul. With the federal government running the program, you can say goodbye to your individual freedom to eat whatever and how much you want, right? Or, think about it - you're going to have to pay for other people's health insurance, even if they insist on killing themselves with unhealthy living?
