Your post was interesting. I would like to point out that most people who overburden our health system also tend to not do the activities you mentioned. People who do those activities tend to be in better health, both physically and psychologically, and tend to have funds. If they go in it is for the rare accident. They are in, get the broken bone set or a few stitches, and they are out.

It has been my experience that many of the people who get a lot of medical care they can't pay for, are NOT physically active and actually would not need as much care if they were active. My neice was diagnosed with diabetes as a teenager. She never exercised and was overweight. The doctors told here it was permanent and she was on insulin. What BULLSH#$@! I found some physical activities she enjoyed and started doing them with her regularly. In six months her diabetes "miraculously" disappeared. She believes me instead of the doctors now and continues to stay active. Her diabetes hasn't come back in ten years.

A little regular exercise does wonders for your health. It's the people who do nothing and drift through life like flotsam that need lots of medical care.
