Health Tax Credits

Allow healthy people to earn tax credits to reduce their tax burden since they are not a burden on the health care industry.

You have 0 prescriptions? Tax Credit
You have not been to the hospital for illness this year? Tax Credit
You grow your own food? Tax Credit
You bike or walk a majority of your commute time? Tax Credit
You used less than 25% of your sick days at work? Tax Credit
Your blood labs and physical results from your PCP are within range for your age bracket? Tax Credit

This could also include some form of physical fitness exam qualifier as well, based on age. You may not qualify, but it is incentive to get stronger and more fit.

The money kept by healthy American taxpayers would help them maintain their healthy lifestyles (buying natural foods and vitamins, gym memberships, sports equipment, ski passes, etc.) and incentivize living healthier. This would also relieve the burden and dependency on big pharma and hospitals, and create an influx of spending into more natural modalities - which healthy people already use (Chiropractic, Massage, Acupuncture, Yoga Studios, etc.)

Let us normalize healthy living! It should be celebrated! And the money would go back into your community and support small businesses too!
