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

Be very careful.

I didn't say that I supported the *denial* of care.In fact,I specifically said that doing so is "crazy".What I *did* say that was that I might support making health insurance more *expensive* for people with certain lifestyles,smoking and obesity being two possible examples.

This is in keeping with other accepted facts of commercial life.For example,a particular person will pay more for a particular life insurance policy if he's,say,a skydiver than if he isn't.Either he'll pay more or the policy will specifically state that no payout will be made if death is the result of a skydiving accident.
