Selective hyprocrisy

So Obamacare print ads show young ladies and extol how great it is that they can engage in liquor shots and lots of sex because now they "are covered" - they have Obamacare. The message is "engage in all sorts of irresponsible behavior because your Obamacare will save you from the consequences."

The ads they don't show, but could:
-the girl smoking without guilt because "she covered" now; no need to worry about cancer medical bills.
-the girl slurping down a 32oz soft drink - no concern about obesity or diabetes because now she is "covered"

The coercive utopians/ collectivists are selective hypocrites when it comes to which "risky" behaviors you can or should engage in. Smoking and soft drinks are bad for your health and are expensive in terms of health care, but risky sexual behavior isn't risky because now you can get birth control, STD coverage, and abortion coverage.

If smoking and obesity are taboo because they create such huge health costs, then why not having children out of wedlock - talk about huge costs: health and welfare. The rate of poverty has increased in part because there are so many children born out of wedlock and the single parent (usually mom) ends up out of work and in poverty.

Cancer from smoking and obesity from over-eating are avoidable - avoid certain behaviors, which are frowned upon by society
Having children out of wedlock is avoidable - avoid certain behaviors which are enabled and rewarded by society.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?
