To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks

A lot of legal problems with this.

However, I am a dedicated health “nut,” which I do not consider nutty at all. Last weekend, I was part of a miscellaneous group presented by two health professionals. AS the undisputed OLDEST member of that group, I was also the healthiest, the most limber, agile, and the only person not taking prescription drugs.

. I attribute this to very good health habits over a lifetime. VERY good. I know for a fact that healthcare costs would drop dramatically if more people practiced prevention. How will that happen? I’m not really against employer-sponsored programs.

So throw me out of FR. I’ll bounce.

Good for you, Veto! I'm a very healthy non-nut. My habits are despicable to any health-nut. My healthcare costs are non-existent, were it not for the socialists taking money from me in the name of "insurance" [socialization of risk] to cover the costs of ____ __ ___ _____ (fill in the blanks). I am not responsible for their crap. That insurance money confiscated from me over my lifetime for all things "insured", would be a heckuva lot of money for my family should I suddenly kick the bucket. I've worked very hard (and am still working very hard) for these socialists to take it…hoping that I die before one dime is paid back. Quite the scam.

I’m a health nut, also.....BUT, when my husbands corp insurance gave a discount if we took a “health survey”....it came back and told ME....my BMI was too high, (I am more muscular than a lot of women) and I drank too much red wine (1 glass a day)....sorry....keep the GOVERNMENT out of health care is the best policy.

You can advise, teach, etc - but you have no right to FORCE - that’s the operative word.

If you don’t understand that, what the H E double L are you doing here?
