Assunto: Re: But should those who maybe bad parents be punished for the fact that they had bad parents, and bad parents before that and before that.
Czuch Exactly! And they can cut the excuse making. I'm not buying any of that nonsense. The problem with liberal philosophy is that they refuse to place the blame where it belongs.
I have an idea for a national health care program. If it were to go through, you have to qualify. No fat people. If you're overweight, lose the weight or your on your own. If you smoke, quit or your on your own. If your kids are fat, get them to a gym or they are not covered. If you drink too much, and have any drinking related problems, you're on your own.
I'd make a list like this and people would have to qualify for coverage. Not only that, but I'd force everyone to join a gym and they'd have to check in each week via a scanner. I'd 1984 the people to the max. And anyone wanting a kid has to ask permission of their congressman and get a certificate. If anyone has a kid without permission, that child is not covered for health care. Let's go all the way with government intrusion.
No more fast food restaurants. Close down McDonalds, BKing and all the others. They have to sell only health foods.
Or, people get scanned when going to a fast food restaurant. And if you go to those places to eat, you can't be covered on government health care.
But no. This is too intrusive for the left. They want to live irresponsibly and have others pick up the tab. And the government wants to reward bad behavior. I follow the rule but will end up paying out of my pocket for the bozos that broke the rules and are now crying "help."
