    Not the most profitable… The least expensive, long term. The most profitable would be the cheapest option but the most possible tax is collected. The whole point is to reduce burden on the tax payers, not maximize tax revenue.

      A healthy individual is more profitable, so as I said, a cure will be the best option - always.

      And yes, it’s profitable. No ones talking about maximising it and collecting more tax. But it’s a great example on how Americans think.
