Ask HN: Health Care for All, Physical Standards Upon Graduation
With all the talk on healthcare for all, why aren't their standards required of high school students to be in minimal shape upon graduating? This would also include expanded Physical Education and Health standards taught in school.
Be able to run a mile in under 10 minutes.
Do 30 push-ups and sit-ups in under 2 minutes.
The most basic baseline. If you can't pass these you don't graduate or pay a premium on health insurance.
Thoughts?
- Witeshadow 8y agoIt's pretty discriminatory towards disabilities for one thing.
