"We need this! And tax benefits have been successful for encouraging other good activities in the past!"

Joan Dunne,
"I fully agree with the tax incentives for healthy lifestyles. I also think that physical education be promoted at the k thru 12 level. We I was in school I believe we had phys ed at least three and maybe four times a year. There should also be more incentives for business. I retired three years ago, and I know how detrimental it can be to sit behind a desk all day with no physical activity. For a number of years I worked full time, had a husband and two children, and took two courses in the evening. My weight soared and I tried to manage everything. Even though I worked on a college campus where there was a wellness center, I really didn't have the time to fit it in. I wish I had a realistic recommendation for this problem, but with the economy what it is today, I see no solution. The incentives you have listed would certainly go along way in promoting a healthy population, and should curtail the spiraling health cost."
