    It can be so because we have unhealthy habits and unhealthy diets, and expensive health care.

    We need more education, less corporate frankenfood, and more socialized medicine.

    Look at Michael Moore. How can a guy like that expect to live longer than a few days. The fact is: liberals over eat.

    By taking personal repsonsiblitiy for their life choices. It isn't anybody elses fault if you don't take care of yourself. If you can't afford doctoring do everything you can to prevent bad health, excercise is one of the most important thing we can do and getting enough sleep is on the list too.

    No worries. Hillary is going to fix this along with everything else that is wrong with the world.

    And, if not, she's issuing everyone free parachutes so we don't have to worry when we go over the cliff.
