I could possibly support disincentives for smokers regarding health care (higher health insurance premiums,for example) and might support similar disincentives for people who are obese without a good excuse (disabilities that make exercise difficult or impossible,for example) but denying care is crazy.BEYOND crazy!

. Pretty much what I believe. I'm sick and tired of paying higher insurance premiums to fatties who eat themselves into the ground. I have a client, 51-52 years old who needs a hip transplant because he weighs 325+ lbs and he wore out his hips.

Smokers and obese are the 2 highest drivers of our out of control health care cost. Record Type 2 diabetes, joint problems, HBP, sleep apnea, om and on related to obesity.

I don't want the gov't to get involved but the private sector to clamp down with these people with incentives to control their diet and weight.

Smokers cost the medical industry less than nonsmokers. They don’t live as long.

You are on a very dangerous road if you would support denying healthcare based on any lifestyle issues.

Be very careful.

You are already partially in the euthanasia camp.

Might as well admit it and go forward.
