Following up on my post from the other day and trying to extend the question: If universal health coverage ever comes around, should my Lap Band be paid for under the terms of my coverage?
Lap bands are kinda gross, and part of a grotesque situation in America - obesity. But, if it helps someone lose weight and puts them in position to be healthier, far healthier, in the long run, is it such a bad thing? We associate weight loss programs with concerns about appearance, but there are serious, nasty health effects.
