Would you care to explain your logic behind that judgement? For a non-US citizen, that line of thought can be hard to follow.

- w0utert 15y agoTo be fair, where I live we have subsidized health care and mandatory health insurance for everyone, but still many forms of 'preventative health care' are considered unacceptable, an invasion of privacy or belittlement by the government. For example, nobody is talking about raising taxes on unhealthy food or asking heavy smokers and drinkers to pay more for their health insurance. Or ask them to enroll in some kind of sports or life-style program that would improve their health before it becomes an issue. I would be all for it by the way, but it's basically not part of any discussion by any political party.
