Okay, but we're talking about having a nationwide public insurance system.
The fact is, even if you don't do anything to encourage healthier lifestyles, public insurance is cheaper. You're being penalized right now by your private insurance carrier who is profiteering off of you. Abolish those middlemen and you save money, regardless of public obesity.
If you follow U.S. politics, you know that's not happening anytime soon.
