The health care system is really designed to reward you for being unhealthy. If you are a healthy person and work hard to be healthy, there are no benefits.

Oh my gosh, I feel like I am really obsessive about anything dealing with my health.

I have always enjoyed poor health.

Most of the provisions designed to fix what ails our health system do not kick in until 2014, which, one wishes administration officials had noticed, is two years after he has to win an election.

Yes. I think the anti-Wal-Mart is Costco, which pays much better and has much better health benefits and which is profitable and offers low prices.

When a woman earns a dollar, the payback is higher. She'll invest in her children, in their education, health care, and basic needs. The impact of a woman role in the economy benefits society at large.

You should be able to afford health care for your family. You should be able to retire with dignity and respect. And you should be able to give your children the kind of education that allows them to dream even bigger, go even farther and accomplish even more than you could ever imagine.

TV does not care about you or what happens to you. It is downright bad for your health now, and that is not a far-out concept. I think watching the TV news is bad for you. It is bad for your physical health and your mental health.

I am trying to inspire people to just take control of their oral health, because if we do not take care of our oral health, it affects so many different aspects of our lives. If your smile and mouth is not together, it affects your relationship, your self-esteem, your health.

In this country, the health concerns and the environmental concerns are as deep as in Europe. All the surveys show that. But here, we did not have the cultural dimension. This is a fast-food culture.

As I mentioned previously, the tools that allow for optimum health are diet and exercise.

Prevention is one of the few known ways to reduce demand for health and aged care services.

We designed both our state employee health plans and the one we created for low-income Hoosiers as Health Savings Accounts, and now in the tens of thousands these citizens are proving that they are fully capable of making smart, consumerist choices about their own health care.

Left to ourselves, we might pick the wrong health insurance, the wrong mortgage, the wrong school for our kids why, unless they stop us, we might pick the wrong light bulb.

Why do we have 47 million people without health care? Because America has become about me. What's happened to we as a people? I believe in that and that resonates to most people.

We cannot rest until we make sure that our families can afford to live and raise their kids here, that our seniors can remain in their homes and afford their health and pharmaceutical costs.

If you look at things that really affect people's lives - sport, the arts, charities - they were always at the back of the queue for government money - health, social security, defence, pensions were all way ahead.
