Healthcare Reform Through Waistline Control

Submitted by Gene Patterson on November 10, 2009 - 9:09pm

Recently, we interviewed Dr. Tom Kim - founder of a clinic for underinsured and uninsured East Tennesseans - about how he would solve our healthcare crisis.

Dr. Kim's prescription was pretty simple.  "Quit smoking, eat less and walk instead of driving places."

He's no doubt right.  We would all be healthier if we followed Dr. Kim's advice.  But how far are we willing to go toward that end? How comfortable would we be if we were "ordered" to quit smoking, eat less and walk more?
