I think we miss the point when we focus on one health issue.  As taxpayers, insurance payers, etc. we all pay for things we don’t agree with.  I absorb the costs for others consequences – smokers get lung cancer, overweight people with heart disease, heavy drinking begets liver disease, people who don’t exercise have other problems.  I personally don’t feel I should pay for the consequences of these people.  But that’s the way it is.
