I’ve never understood why America doesn’t have a decent health care system. And then America voted for Trump, and everyone appears shocked at what he has done…

There is something very wrong with American attitudes.

Hard to pay for a health care system when the population is incentivized to live absolute unhealthy lives.

Encourage not sleeping, advertise and manufacture processed garbage, encourage drinking poison, and most of all encourage working long hours over getting any physical activity.

Yeah, good luck with that. It’s an every man for themselves environment, the government and American society is fine with throwing your body into the meat grinder for more profit.

Ironically we’d be much more productive if we incentivized a healthier lifestyle for the population.
