Obviously health care is going to get extremely expensive for those who intend to live forever. Science keeps increasing the number of conditions that can be treated, but at increasingly higher incremental costs. There is no way around that. I read a while back that around 90% of a person's total lifetime health care expenses occur during their final 6 months of life. Just die 6 months earlier and save a bundle. The "Death Panels" will be assuming this role in place of the insurance companies. But the end result is the same. Ain't none of us getting out of here alive.
