I'm well aware that insurance is a big business in this country and the lack of privacy in having our DNA on record goes against my sense of having big brother know everything about us.
But I have a problem with requiring insurance companies to turn a blind eye to information regarding our insurability. If they can determine that I have a 50% chance of dieing before I'm 40 and you only have a .001% chance then it seems only fair that they should be able to charge you less for life and health insurance.
Of course maybe we should just nationalize the insurance industry and treat everyone like they have the same genetic makeup and risk.
