You must get some daily news letter with the Dem talking points since their latest ploy is that we need to keep people healthy instead of just caring for the sick.

I read an interesting point in a post here or on PFP.

The purpose of insurance is to insure against risk. Paying the cost of prevention really is not insuring against risk. My car insurance does not pay for oil changes or tires, they aren't risk items.

Another point is that preventative care may be good from a quality of life issue, but it does not necessarily reduce costs in the long run. It just postpones the day of reckoning when those costs are incurred.
