    Boycott Whole Foods!

    The owner, Mr. Mackey, has written an OpEd in an important newspaper saying that if people get sick, it is their fault and their problem. If they ate right, exercised, and didn't smoke, they wouldn't get sick. Health care is not a right, but a personal responsibility.

    It is true that exercise, healthy food, and not smoking are important for good health, but it isn't the whole story. Insurance should be us all sharing the risk, no one knows when they will be hit by a drunk driver or come down with some serious illness.

    I will never shop at Whole Foods again.
