If You Are Obese And Don't Even Try To Eat Healthy Why Should I Have To Pay For Your Medical Care?

If cost containment is genuinely your concern, a far greater target would be end of life care. If we stopped massively expensive futile efforts to grant grandma a few more months or weeks or days of an agonizing helpless duration (not worth calling life) and instead gave far more attention to cheap palliative care and destigmatized voluntary euthanasia, we could save 1/3 of all medical costs. We grant dogs the dignity and respite of a peaceful end when their lives are no longer worth living. We torture our elderly and terminally sick by refusing them $5 worth of morphine lest they spend their last few days as addicts while spending six figures on operations with a 7% chance of success and thousands of dollars a night for a hospice bed that makes them less comfortable in mind and body than being at home.
