Seventy-two percent of First Globals agree that “most diseases can be avoided by choosing a healthy lifestyle.” First Globals are somewhat more extreme than other generations in their thinking on this subject– among those age 30-49, 63% agreed, and among those 50-64, 58% agreed.
Some say that this view blames the victim, because it implies that people are to blame for their own diseases. Other say that this view helps people understand the consequences of their life choices. But if one believes the latter, should they also oppose universal health care? Should tax-payers be responsible for funding health care costs for those who choose to make "unhealthy" lifestyle choices or should health care be provided for everyone even if they choose to participate in less-than-healthy activities?

of course we must take into account that where you live impacts the likelihood of getting a disease. i think it is generally safe to say that a vanilla kid living in a big crib in the vanilla suburbs is less likely to get a disease than somebody in a country where poverty and aids and other diseases are rampant. Of course the vanilla kid can still get herpes or some kind other friend because he too has adversity to deal with, just more of an emo kind of lifestyle though.
But in the end, we are only accountable for ourselves. of course basic necessities should be offered (like access to get check ups), but we must remember that people need to assume responsibility. i learned that while working with homeless people.
