It's funny you ask that. Insurance companies are already doing incentive programs. They give people fitbits and check their cholesterol, their BMI, etc... You'll know if their numbers go up/down and what the fitbits state.

Technology has made it even easier for us to get healthy.
That's free-market ..which means free-choice ...Not your plan at all!

This is a pet peeve of mine because I have taken great care of myself and it annoys me that I have to pay for other people's laziness or lack of discipline.
So take away their liberty ? NO!

The oldest man...cigarettes, we all know that is the rare exception. Why even go there? So that means if he didn't smoke, he live to be 120.

Who are you and who do you think you are to give health advice to the oldest man in the world and anyone for that matter? You live your life and let others live thiers...that's what America is about and that's why socialism will meet its bloody end in America

You didn't answer on the gay issue ..proven to be the most unhealthy lifestyle ever... you would outlaw it?

I actually 100% agree with you. But would you be against financial incentives if complete universal health care was implement for people who: exercised regularly, ate health, didn't smoke, etc... ?

People can still eat McDonalds every day, but will not be offered any incentives that people who are conscience of their health.
Either way the taxpayer foots the bill. What the taxes don't cover China does. Obamacare is ruining health care for the average citizen.

I've been a Sanders supporter for a long time, despite that he's not a popular choice for many Christians. I feel that other candidates are far more shady and self centered than Sanders is, but lately I've had to reconsider. I saw something suggesting that Sanders is in favor of the two-state solution for Israel / Palestine. I felt really sad when I read that, because if it's true...I cannot condone or support someone who is for splitting up the land of Israel. If it's true, I have no idea who to vote for. I don't trust Hillary at all and frankly, Trump's crudeness and pride are repulsive.

("But Called4Christ, at least Trump speaks his mind!!He isn't bought out!" Yeah. Well, Satan spoke his mind too...)


I need to research this to find out if it's true that Sanders supports a "two state solution".

The fundamental issue at hand is not so much the decisions being made, but who we have making these decisions.

Putting life and death in the hands of the State outside the context of criminal law and military engagement invariably leads to tyranny no matter what the intentions are at the beginning.

Are you asking me if I would outlaw morality in America?

I think that whether or not we legalize abortion won't matter. People who want to abort WILL find a way to do it, but more likely in a method that would induce harm to themselves. I really don't want to get into the details.

Folks can decide to do bloodwork..but you and miss Bernie have been saying folks should be forced to give bloodwork to prove to the government you have not broken healthcare rules... how about smoking pot and gay sex ..allowed or not in your socialized police state?

No..that not true ... the fact that it easier to get a abortion than a tooth pulled is a big reason so many babies are being killed.
