Americans are fat

Simple. You'd have to stand in line for hours to get an appointment, strengthening your leg muscles. Buerocrats would send you up and down long hospital floors and stairs. You'd need to bend down and kiss ass to get any treatment approved, giving your back some exercise. Cheap medicine would leave you without appetite, putting you on a state-ordered diet. It's really simple, once you think about it. On a more serious note: One would assume that with mostly private health care, people would be encouraged to take things into their own hands more. Apparently, not so much.

The economics of health insurance are more similar to socialism than the free market, only membership is optional. Most insurance plans have a relatively nominal deductible such that it basically covers all or most health care costs. There is absolutely no incentive to compare prices and services and little incentive to be healthier or visit the doctor less often. Consumer-driven health plans, however, use market forces.

I'm sorry, but you didn't hurt my feelings. You just exposed yourself as the worthless degenerate you are. You deserve nothing but contempt. *spit*

Someone needs to invent food thats good tasting, filling, inexpensive, and low calorie. Currently you can't get the 1st 3 without it being fattening junk. :(( And don't be suggesting salads. X| That's what food eats before it's processed into a nice thick rare steak. :cool:

Indeed! I'm starting to like France. It's not like Switzerland! And your food...oh man... I'm already putting on weight. :-D
I am not surprised! I was in Dijon a few weeks back and all I could see to eat was Tartiflette, Raclette, Tartiflette Pizza (yea, like with potatoes and half a Reblouchon on top), more pizzas, and Entrecote. No salads, no fish, nothing light at all. Nice, but skiing food without the skiing is DIY heart atack time.

Yeah, it's not Paris. This is campagne food. Heavy on the fat and cream. I just had veal kidneys with creme fraiche and mushrooms. Man it was good, but I can't do that every week...

Congress actually passed legislation protecting fast-food chains from fat-suits and none have succeeded prior to that legislation.

I like Provence for the reason that it has a Mediteranean diet and a Mountain diet because it is where the Alps meet the sea. The charcuterie is exellent, the fish, vegetables and salad too, and when you want itm beef daube, tartiflette and pizzas. Theres also some good asian food around, especially vietnamese, but Thai and Indian too and some tex mex places, even in small towns. My favourite right now is Roquefort salad with wallnuts. I just cant get enough of it. But since winter is comming I feel my Cheese Fondue taste buds awakening... Hmm, cantal jeune, ementall, Picpul de Pinet, gruyerre, beaufort....
