I have no problem for people accepting the personal responsibility to eating junk food and living an unhealthy lifestyle. Should we extend that personal responsibility to the point that health-conscious people like my myself stop funding health insurance plans that perform the bypass operations, chemotherapy, and treatment for secondary complications that those fat smoking slobs bring upon themselves? Should healthy people like me stop paying for diabetes medications for anyone that weighs over 250lbs and does not exercise? Make them pay for it out of pocket or try to find health insurance plans that only cover fat slobs? I bet you could not afford it. Should we let you die the painful death you brought upon yourself?
Face it people. The Walmarts of the world are now pushing for a national health plan because it will save them money. It's only a matter of time. Hopefully the focus will eventually switch from treatment to prevention. We now tax polluters in an effort to force them to clean up their act. Is it any different to tax McDonald's for the increased costs they are causing the health insurance industry or to tax cigarettes for the costs of treating people with lung cancer? -Dave Walton On Jan 4, 2008 11:54 AM, Allan Streib <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > "dave walton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > > People who want to eat healthy food have nothing to do with > > McDonald's at all. > > So why do they spoil it for the rest of us? > > > -- > > 1983 300D > 1966 230 > > _______________________________________ > http://www.okiebenz.com > For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ > For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: > http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com > _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
