Pretty fu*ked up that the insurance biz believes it is their right to have your genetic predisposition
Is it because you know what you're at risk for? Don't they ask such questions on a questionnaire when you do a physical?

I remember answering all sorts of questions etc. I'm sure you could lie... but wouldn't it affect you on payouts if ever?
