There is a grain (or should I say spermatozoan) of truth in Representative Buyer's immodest proposal. Health costs could be significantly reduced if people took better care of themselves. The expense of having to treat diseases brought on by embracing whatever drug turns us on is catastrophically high. Let's reduce our cravings for stimulants, depressants, and other self-destructive pleasures that rot our bodies. We ought to spend more time in 12-step programs than in doctor's offices or hospitals. If we all treated ourselves with more TLC, we'd be less likely to end up in the ICU.
