Your study though is telling.



Only I haven't heard any complaints from you about Michelle O demanding healthy lunches, especially to kids whose family have no resources to pay for insurance. If only we could get everyone to chain smoke and get to 400lbs.

Also why in the hell are you worried about measles vaccinations? Imagine the savings to the system visa vi a measles epidemic? Especially since it would rid us of 'unhealthy' children eating up health costs?

How about extending the late term abortion limit to children under say 8, as surely they are incapable of sustaining life on there own. And for God's sake stop treating diseases like leukemia and AIDS.

Bingo bongo!
Except, unlike you, I don't have an issue with contributing to the health of society at large, so of course I support the First Lady's efforts to improve eating and exercise habits. I'd like people to live long, healthy lives.

How is it fair under your "punish the people who do things I don't like" utopia to charge a smoker who doesn't ever develop lung cancer? Or an obese person who is in perfect health?

And really, smokers already are doing that, via the taxes they pay on every package of cigarettes.
