Well, we pay for a lot of people's bad choices. For the vast majority of cases, HIV is preventable if you use a condom or don't share needles. Yet people still do it, HIV is contracted, and a lifetime of expensive meds are needed.
Should people who abuse alcohol not receive treatment for the destruction that causes the body. How about smokers?
The list goes on and on. We could put people in special camps to stop them from doing harmful actions. That's at the other extreme of the spectrum of government telling you what you can and cannot do.
Every journey begins with a single step - which is why I was very happy the Judge ruled that Bloomberg's was a misstep, not to be taken.
