First, I could certainly support some form of basic care. At the same time, I travel quite a bit internationally and am astounded at just how fat and unhealthy we are as a nation. The meme of a fat American riding a Little Rascal into Walmart would be funny if it were not so close to the truth. How do we (or do we?) address the medical issues that are a function of lifestyle?
Not sure I could support the knee replacement (or the Little Rascal) for someone who is 150 pounds overweight.
