According to Myllykangas et al.  if lower priority is given to people with unhealthy lifestyle this will result to increased social health inequities since these population groups are in greater need for medical treatment. The literature suggests that health care resource allocation based on lifestyle is much debated and rather problematic. The adoption of a healthy lifestyle is also influenced by education  which is associated with the socioeconomic status  which in turns affects the person’s health status consisting a vicious cycle. It is assumed that people of high educational level are most likely to support the principle of necessity compared to people of low, since this principle actually underlines that individual contributions should be rewarded .
