Political Factoid
The insurance industry now has
a new tool for discriminating
against people based upon age.
A simple blood test that indicates
(within a decade) your biological age*
(i.e., how long you can be expected
to live.)
| Life Insurance |
The less you will live,
the higher your premiums. |
| Health Insurance |
The longer you will live,
the higher your premiums. |
| Long-term Care Insurance |
The longer you will live,
the higher your premiums |
It can also be used to make lower pension
payments to those expected to live longer.
| * |
As opposed to your chronological age.
