Health Standards Are Sufficient Coverage Remedies

                     

The Harvard School of Public Health reported that about twelve health style abuses account for over one million American deaths each year. Cut down those statistics and you have remedied the health care problem.

                     

It’s been estimated that smoking costs about 467,000 American lives a year. High blood pressure from unhealthy lifestyles causes about 395,000 lives per year. There is some overlapping as bad health habits are the cause of multiple afflictions.

                             

An emphasis on such changes can save the American economy an enormous amount of money, while keeping its capital infrastructure intact.

                     

But that may be too simple for our health care grandstanding politicos. They would rather change the entire structure of a sixth of the economy by having government controls. (See the Earl J. Weinreb NewsHole® comments and @BusinessNewshole at Twitter.)
