If you know that you have an illness, and don’t tell your insurance company, then you’re a fraudster. If you know you have a genetic predisposition to illness, that’s no different.
Discrimination is not inherently a bad thing.
it’s always fucking unsettling when the orange site goes almost entirely mask off about how they consider folks with hereditary diseases to be genetically inferior (and it happens a lot)
Wouldn’t there be a negative feedback loop where the genetically prone to illness can only get crap insurance and due to crap healthcare die younger and live more unhealthy years, which makes them poorer? And their kids can also only get crap insurance due to loss of generational wealth and/or inherited disease until eventually family members are dying of diseases of poverty?
And a positive feedback loop for the healthy middle classes, whose sick kids get improved care?
