The real solution is single-payer, a public option may have eased transition into single-payer sometime in the future, whereas a sudden transition into single-payer would have shocked the economy and been nigh impossible (it wasn't even suggested). In my country we have single-payer. Despite this, I take care of myself, perhaps not as well as you do, but I'm close. I don't expect some sort of reward for taking proper care of myself, nor do I expect others to take the same kind of care because people are often careless. Health care is a right, whether you smoke, go to the gym, eat donuts or eat broccoli.
