    how they don't want to be "paying" for other peoples' choices (fuck you smokers, fuck you runners, fuck you meat eaters, fuck you skiiers, fuck you desk jockeys, fuck you mountain climbers, fuck you couch potatoes, fuck you vegans, etc. etc.) -- I think it really is just science fiction and unattainable.

    Seems to work in most nations around the world.

    Maybe what Americans forget is that *WE* are in all of this together, not separate, but together. *WE* are all born and die the same, no matter what. *WE* will get sick and get into accidents. If all you think is "fuck you smokers" and then you get lung cancer that you thought was impossible.

    Kids are born and get cancer at 3 years old. People get injured by a drunk driver with no insurance. And in prime of your life, when you are at the top of the world, a measly ameba can eat your brain and leave you drooling for rest of your life. If all you have is "fuck you, got mine", then sucks to be you.
