100%If the obese and the smokers have to pay higher medical premiums under ObamaCare because of their “risky behavior,” surely homosexuals should as well. To do otherwise is overt discrimination because the expense to keep them alive is staggering.

Homosexuals will probably get free medical care. The little faggots ought to be paying every nickel they earn to insurance as they wanted “gay marriage” simply to get employer spousal medical benefits. It was during the early 1980s the little fags started contracting and dying of AIDS they decided to demand spousal medical insurance.
Homosexuality is a choice; a lifestyle they practice. It is not a genetic disorder as proven by identical twins where one choses homosexuality but the other does not.
Their sexual perversions know no bounds.
Furthermore, if the nanny gummint can ban high-capacity sodas and tobacco, why can't they at least discourage homosexuality, if not ban it outright?
Oh, that's right. We're only a "collective" when it moves the agenda to the left.
In Kali exchanges they don't.
August 2011: Transgender communities in the United States (US) are among the groups at highest risk for HIV infection. Findings from a meta-analysis of 29 published studies showed that 27.7% of transgender women tested positive for HIV infection (4 studies), but when testing was not part of the study, only 11.8% of transgender women self-reported having HIV (18 studies). In one study, 73% of the transgender women who tested HIV-positive were unaware of their status. Newly identified HIV infection was 2.6% among transgender persons compared with 0.9% for males and 0.3% for females. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 8-11-2011 http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/transgender/pdf/transgender.pdf
While only constituting an estimated 4 percent of the U.S. male population aged 13 and older, Men Who Have Sex With Men (MSM) account for 53 percent of all new HIV infections in the U.S., (more than 44 times that of other men) as well as 48 percent of people living with HIV. (Cntd. below)
MSM is the only risk group in the U.S. in which new HIV infections are increasing. While new HIV infections have declined among both heterosexuals and injection drug users, infections among MSM have been steadily increasing since the early 1990s. Nearly 18,000 people with AIDS still die each year in the U.S. CDC: HIV and AIDS in America: A Snapshot, http://www.cdc.gov/nchhstp/newsroom/docs/HIVandAIDSinAmericaSnapshotFINAL70710508COMP.pdf
March 10, 2010: The rate of new HIV diagnoses among men who had homosexual relations (MSM) is more than 44 times that of other men and more than 40 times that of women. The rate of primary and secondary syphilis among MSM is more than 46 times that of other men and more than 71 times that of women, the analysis says. CDC press release, http://www.cdc.gov/nchhstp/Newsroom/msmpressrelease.html
The sin of male-to-male sodomy contact accounted for 53% (28,700) of estimated new HIV infections in 2006. CDC’s historical trend analysis indicates that HIV incidence has been increasing steadily among gay and bisexual men since the early 1990s. These more accurate figures are the result of new technology developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) can be used to distinguish recent from long-standing HIV infections. http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/topics/surveillance/resources/factsheets/incidence.htm http://www.cdc.gov/NCHHSTP/newsroom/docs/FastFacts-MSM-FINAL508COMP.pdf

54% of HIV infections among males, aged 13-29, were caused by homosexual contact in 2006. 34% of HIV infections were caused by heterosexual contact in the same demographic. 77% of HIV positive homosexual men between the ages of 15 and 29 do not know that they are infected. http://www.cdc.gov/healthyyouth/sexualbehaviors/pdf/hiv_factsheet_ymsm.pdf http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2009/jun/09061813.html

The monthly medical cost now [Nov 2006] for people with HIV from diagnosis until death is averages to be $2,100. The lifetime (now 24.2 years avg.) HIV care cost per person in optimal HIV care is now $618,900 per person. 06 Nov 2006 NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center Schackman , Freedberg, MGH;, Gebo Moore Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Harvard School of Public Health, Harvard Medical School, and BU School of Public Health). http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/55870.php http://porkbusters.org/2007/02/prevent_baby_aids_or_learn_how.php
The average cost of HIV treatment is $14,000 to $20,000 a year, according Michael Kolbe, MD, (Professor of medicine and Director of Comprehensive AIDS Program and Adult HIV Services). In the US more than 1.2 million people [CDC] are living with HIV, with approx. 37 percent being 50 years old or older. According Yale Medical School experts, this number is expected to grow to 50 percent by 2017. http://globalaging.blogspot.com/2012/01/cost-of-hiv.html
As a result of present day [2007] HAART chemotherapy for HIV infection, a person diagnosed as HIV-infected in the United States can expect to live an average of 24 years but this comes at a cost. Over that period, drug costs can be as high as $600,000 with an annual cost of care of more than $25,000. http://pathmicro.med.sc.edu/lecture/hiv-cost2007.htm
About 1.2 million people are living with HIV in the US but about 20% (240,000) do not know they are infected. Each year, about 50,000 people get infected with HIV in the US. CDC, Dec. 2011 http://www.cdc.gov/VitalSigns/HIVtesting/index.html
75% of patients with HIV in the United States, do not have their disease under control, while it is estimated that over 2 million people are in danger of spreading the disease.
