That may play a part, but the reality is that I take care of myself and actually use FEWER medical resources than the drug addled and STD infected young punks.

The only sex I have is in the normal manner and with the woman I married. The only drugs I take is the low cost legal kind.

I was not saying that your actual health care is expensive. It is only that it costs the employer much more to insure an older person. Because of the extra cost of insurance, an employer must pay many thousands of dollars more to hire you than to hire a young punk, even if the company paid you less in wages.
