Illness is NOT a consumer decision and never will be.

No matter how perfectly you think you are living your life, you WILL become sick at some point. You can hurry the process along if you have a lousy diet, smoke, drink and/or do a lot of drugs. You can't stop it.

Illness is a fact of life. It will hit us all at some point. Universal single payer means just that, that care will be there for us when it happens.

After all, the people who nagged me to go out running with them in the 70s are now having knee replacements. My arthritis is painful, but my knees are still holding up.
