People who cause their own illnesses through unhealthy lifestyles and poor diets should have to pay more for health care. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

People
can buy many things with money but not
health
,
while
some things that individuals who suffer their sickness
as a result
of poor lifestyles and unhealthy feeding should pay extra to gain medical help, I completely disagree and I believe it is not fair at all,
due to
many
reasons
, which I will explain some of them in
this
essay.
Firstly
, lack of time. Nowadays,
people
spend an immense time at work,
hence
, there is no time for cooking or gym either.
For example
, I used to work from 9:00 till 22:00.
consequently
, those
people
should not incur extra expenditure on
health
services, as it is not their fault.
Secondly
,
people
illness attributed to genetic
reasons
also
.
people
weight gains, is different from one to another,
for Instance
, myself and my sister, we eat the same amount of food daily,
however
, I can lose weight fast than her
due to
metabloic
reasons
. Another reason is mental
health
, Mostly,
people
tend to eat more when they feel depression, as clear example is movies, in movies the actors gain weights when they be in deperssion.
Moreover
, others orientation not to eat whenever they feel anxiety.
Therefore
losing or gaining weights is not always
due to
lack of activity or laziness, so if the healthcare service's cost, depends on
such
spontaneous and uncontrollable
reasons
,
then
definitely, there will be no justice.
Finally
, Obesity can lead into many
health
disorders, even though
people
should be responsible for them
health
, the poor lifesytle and unhealthy diet should not be measurement for their
health
cost.
