“……A whopping 83 million Americans were “completely inactive”….”

Does that number include the individuals who comment on this website ?

Apparently it’s been estimated that crows can live in excess of 100 years. They’re also so
intelligent that they’ll watch a squirrel bury his nuts and then go down and dig them up.

I can well believe it because the old crow took my nuts when she found them buried in the pub’s barmaid.

No bad habits, eat the right things, exercise daily will keep you from extending your desired girth and weight.
I walk for two and one half miles every morning, run for one half mile, rain or shine. a little over forty minutes for the total workout.
It is not that hard to do if you are committed to staying healthy.
My resting blood pressure is averaging 112/63 with a heart rate of 52.
I wear the same size jeans that I wore when I was 25 years old, 30 for Lee and 32 or 30 for Levi.
It pays off, this is probably the best that I have felt in twenty to thirty years.

Cousin Judge and I have been sharing stories about our grandparent’s farm. His Dad and my Mom were brother and sister. Granddaddy built a new two-seater outhouse but he put the seats too high for us. So he took me down there and with his hatchet he just chopped a long slit in the new floor! When we were able to get up on the seats we thought we were grown-up, and he added comic books to the reading material.

Two excerpts from (Uncle Handsome’s Redneck Poetry from“The Road Less Graveled”)

———————

GRANNY AND THE HAUNTED OUTHOUSE

A woodpecker started peckin’ on the outhouse door
While Granny was settin’ out there.
She kept yelling, “Wait just a minute!
Wait just a minute and I’ll be out of h’yar!”

But that bird kept peckin’ and Granny kept yellin’.
The boys were just rolling on the ground.

——————–

ELVIS IS IN OUR OUTHOUSE

Big’un likes playin’ the banjo in the outhouse
He thinks that he’s Elvis out there
Granny plays her flattop on the front porch
Where she can git lots of fresh air

Sometimes I fiddle in front of the fire
While Shooter plays a tune on the jug

When you (or your insurance company) start paying your medical bills fully, I mean without subsidy or tax break for your employer or you, when you pay for all catastrophic costs involved in your care, then we’ll have that conversation. That includes home health, long term care, prescriptions, and dental. Until then the American taxpayer has a say in your health. As long as people keep showing up in the ER or Dr’s office and can’t or won’t pay, the American taxpayer’s wallet is in the health game. With freedom comes reposnsibility

Yes, I agree somewhat, but why confine this to a person’s health. Let us extrapolate this out to cover every aspect of a person’s life that depends upon the government. If I pay taxes to support people unwilling to work , should I not have some say so in their life if I am paying for their existence. Be careful what you wish for as far as your pet peeves are concerned. Most Americans are paying much more than they should for people that are irresponsible when it comes to personal health and so many other aspects of their life.

OK at the concept level. Then’s there’s the discussion about who is able to work (like how about those that are not trainable for a variety of reasons, or parents of young children, etc) and what are you defining is “some say” in their life? I know that depends on the program and the circumstances, but also, how about when the “some say” has unintended consequences which are bad policy, like drug testing welfare recipients (fails the cost/benefit test). “having some say” shouldn’t be “because I can and want to”. There is always a cost (loss) of social control when someone receives a welfare benefit. It’s whether it’s a reasonable exchange and good policy too.

On the other hand, we are not a heartless people. Sometimes you have to wonder, but overall no. There are some groups we are more willing to suffer consequences of their choices; it’s the old “worthy vs unworthy poor” discussion that carried over from Elizabethan-era welfare law. There are also groups and situations that make us more uncomfortable when they are poor, for example, the elderly. A fair bit of their poverty comes from poor choices, but we don’t like to see them eat cat food either.

It’s an easy subject to demagog, of course. Also easy fodder for jokes. The truth is, though, that there are hormonal factors triggered by medical conditions that contribute as much to morbid obesity in women as overeating and lack of exercise. One of the main triggers is polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). It can result in extreme weight gain and great difficulty in taking off the pounds.

As for the line about how beggars can’t be choosers … well, some of them can be. Congressman Tom Rice, for example. As perpetual wards of the state, I hear he and his family of Democrats are extremely picky about what they get served on our dime.
