Providing that HC, we now hold them responsible for their own choices, we all like pro choice, remember.....
They will be charged for their crappy diets, drinking too much, drugs, obesity from lack of activity, sloth, etc....
For the betterment of strengthening our society for all.

You want to be a doctor, great, you pull the grades and apply yourself, we will provide you the tools ( $$$$$$ ).
Once you become a doctor, you work so many years in a state clinic, before you go out on your own....
We can do this with many graduate degrees.
We teach trades, with payback being to the states needs first.
