Of course, we want them to get insurance because it's all pay and little spend. That's part of how it all gets paid for. I think the line in the article may have been misleading. "More" than younger people, but not "more" than they're paying now?

Yeah, well I will match myself and the state of my health against any young squirt out there. One flu shot a year, oh and I did get a checkup because I have not had one in five years, but they don't cover that in any case.

Having met you, I must chime in that this is the honest truth. When you told me your age, I was shocked seeing how good you get around, and the fact that you probly have ten times more use-able brain cells left than I was even born with.

No joke fellers, he is in pretty darn good shape for a man of his age.

One can only hope that old age treats them half as kind.
