  There is a price for everything - not necessarily in dollars.  If you want
  health care, or anything else, there are the side effects.  If you get
  chemotherapy, your hair falls out; if you subscribe to a magazine, you get
  junk mail;if you water your lawn, you have to mow it; if you take part in a
