Subject: If you have a lifestyle related illness, do you feel guilty
Hey OP,
Do you support Bloomberg's proposed ban on large sodas?
Would you support banning cigarettes?
Would you support taking vending machines out of schools?
How about paying higher taxes to fund healthier school lunches?
My guess is you complain about the "nanny state" already and these proposals would drive you bats.
But do let us know what you think about them.

Best for people to take control of their lives and stop costing the system so much.
More money to treat kids with disabilities and people with diseases that were not self induced.
No, but they can
(1) work in a field where you contribute positively to society(2) avoid working in something that contributes negatively to society (arguably: brokering bad mortgages, transfer pricing, and I can think of some more but some of you would probably be insulted)
So how about it, OP? You may be sparing the government from treating your diabetes or lung cancer (assuming you don't get some other genetically-linked cancer that costs equal bucks). But are you contributing positively or negatively to society?
THis is pretty subjective. Enterainment industry? Military/defense? Accounting? Some would say yes, some would say no.
Well, let's let OP tell us what she does for a living, and then we can discuss it.
