There are tens of thousands of people like him, but, you're more than welcome to prove your case against each of them.........if you can.

It just struck me funny. For a guy who isn't at all specific, you are suddenly getting very specific. Well, to tell you the truth, I don't have those answers. However, I do know that many others do. Why do you think doctors recommend we spend all sorts of money on preventative medicine? After all, if most are "not my fault" issues, preventative wouldn't be worthwhile, would it? For instance, why does medicare or is it medicaid that covers stomach banding? Well, today the patient is fine. Tomorrow, he might develop other conditions. But if those conditions he might develop are "not my fault" conditions, why spend money on gastric bypasses and what not? Why prevent it when most of the illinesses are not "fault of his own"?
