Self Magazine debuted its first digital cover this week, which showed plus-sized model Tess Holliday and told readers that her “health is none of your business.”

Well, actually, thanks to ObamaCare, it kinda is my business.

She is going to eventually want “us” to pay for her new hips and knees; it’s most assuredly our business.

Sadly, a great many people will agree with you.

I say “sadly”, because a profound loss of personal liberties is one of the consequences of socialized medicine. Everyone engages in some “risky” behaviours — play hockey, ski, ride a bicycle, ride a motorbike, go camping, have a drink after work, walk to work, drive to work, etc. If you judge other’s risky behaviours, purely on the basis of the cost to the medical system; then you can expect your risky behaviours to be judged the same way. And you might not like the results.
