Already tried those options but thanks anyway.

but, but spike, it's soooooo easy, can't you just solve your own problems? :retch:

 

[Gonz]

oh yes, let us explore all of our glorious options with benevolent insurance companies, who put human values first.

Do you think that the government is some benevolent uncle? They will do the same. The difference will be, you won't have an option to go elsewhere.

 

[spike]

Or you will.

Why is it the government's responsibility to force people to be healthy? I'm all for making education and information available, but spending this exorbitant sum of money to force these people who obviously have no interest in becoming healthier is just absurd. If the child's well-being is in serious danger, then put them in foster care until the parents can get their shit together. It's not the government's responsibility to care for those who don't care about themselves.

Foster care is 'sponsored' by the GVT...much like child-care services, removing kids from families etc..

much like all the health issues of overweight people are more common, and more expensive than those with health BMI. If you can spend a bit of money (Effort) now to save a LOT of money (Effort) later, you win.
