I understand that living in a society requires one to pay for things that benefit us all even though we may not partake of those particular services. I just don't want to see the government to be overly concerned about our lifestyle choices. There are so many so called unhealthy things that we choose to do.
I would hate to see bureaucrats pouring over our choices and taxing what they consider to be bad for us. Half the time they are wrong anyway. High carb and low carb diets being the most recent. A few years back there was a study that showed high cancer rates from eating charcoal broiled steak, and on and on.
I don't want the government micro-managing our lifes. We are supposed to be "the land of the free and home of the brave" and most of us already have mothers and fathers. I'll get off my soapbox now, LOL.
