This argument isn't good faith until we start seeing Op-Eds on the selfishness of obesity and poor metabolic health - the economic and societal costs of which are astronomical. https://twitter.com/TheAtlantic/status/1381006737424125955

For my part, I'd guess that once you add up my banked credits for curing my T2D w/ keto (not Western medicine), a lifetime of keeping my BMI <18, & the fact I already had COVID - I'm solidly in the black.

Does society owe me a debt?
Or does this calc only work in one direction?

The answer is, "No."

Society owes me nothing for my personal choices.

Conversely, shaming ppl for a perceived violation of an inferred collective financial obligation per a subjective, one-dimensional barometer of risk is a patently bad idea.
