I say this is bullshit. Ironic that this is the first time this argument has been made, and it's right when Washington wants to pass a healthcare plan.
My mother had cancer due to smoking, and here medical expenses for 2 years were higher then mine, my sisters, and my fathers life time costs to date.
My father is 70, and extremely healthy. I would expect him to continue to be no cost to healthcare, right up until he heart gives out, and is pronounced DOA at the hospital.
Even if he has 3 hart attacks and a pace maker, it would be the fraction of the cost of my mother.
