I wrote about luck and chance a few weeks ago. I feel the same about 
accidents. And I think disease can be prevented by choice. Contrary 
to the happy "S--t happens," I feel that bad happenings are human caused.

I decline to accept and pay for Medicare Part B. Drugs? Don't use them.

I am, however, in favor of a national health care plan, for pragmatic 
reasons. Should the DC Whorehouse ever create one, I will willingly 
pay my fair share of its cost.
