Riiight! Longevity has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of health care.
I will say one thing. When it comes to disagreeing with Obama Repubs will say the silliest things.
I've given the answer a dozen times. Repeat after me, "ObamaCare, which includes yearly check-ups, will result in detecting illnesses before they reach the critical stage thereby saving money due to people taking preventative measures."
Do you run your car until it breaks down or do you check the oil and take it to the garage for periodic maintenance/check-ups?
Perfect analogy. I am responsible for maintaining my own cars, just like I am responsible for maintaining my health. Are you now supporting a law that the government should check my oil every week?
Why do you despise personal responsibility?
Excuse me but most "harm" is done to the human body by it's owner, just like the car...The difference is if your engine is harmed due to a lack of oil society is not responsible for repairing your engine. If your body is harmed emergency rooms are required to repair you. Are you now supporting a law that hospitals/emergency rooms should refuse critically ill patients.
I'm all for personal responsibility like enforcing laws to ensure everyone pays their fair share of taxes.![]()

That's a lie. You don't want everyone to pay their fair share of taxes. If you did then you would want those who pay nothing in Federal income tax to pay something and you don't.

In order for one to give a fair share they have to have something to share. Is that so complicated to understand?

Overeating and poor work habits.
'Or they could just sign up for disability, have their cake and everyone elses too
You're moving the goal posts. My argument is that: "most harm is done to the human body by it's owner". If they got off their butts and exercised, stopped smoking, overeating, and having sex with strangers they'd be much healthier. But like you, they 'vote in their best interest' for free health care and food stamps.Poor work habits cause high blood pressure and/or rheumatoid arthritis?

Really? What is the usual way people cause hypertension/high blood pressure? Rheumatoid arthritis?
We'll start with those two.
