About half of the people United States are on government supplied medical insurance, and most of the people in other countries are on some version of that. It is cheaper for people to die younger and so we should be encouraging unhealthy habits if we want to minimize medical care costs. In spite of it's near ubiquity, I am trying to avoid the phrase "health care" because that is, as another comment talked about, not really what we do.
