I can see that you are focused on self-management. It is obvious that people must learn self-control and have consequences for their actions. What is your opinion of socialized medicine? Or do you prefer affordable insurance driven by competition?

Socialized medicine has always rewarded an economy with positive benifits by helping to ensure a healthy labour force and mentality.
The externalities given from it outweigh the costs in a cost-benifits analysis

Thank you for your opinion.

I understand the benefits of a healthy labor force, but the younger the person is, the less likely it is that they would require health services. Wouldn't that make it more beneficial the older the work force gets? Instead of a blanket socialized medicine program, to instead have it based on age? For example, in the states, men need to get their prostate checked for cancer starting at 40 years old. So, that would be a good base for when it becomes soclaized. Or, do those rewards also appear at earlier ages, even when large numbers do not require it?
