From the quoted quip near the bottom:

  Life insurance premiums will never be the same again once this test is out there.
That means, for people who are more likely to live a long time, the recent-and-upcoming health care shifts are fantastic news. I remember reading about some 100+ers who have had their support vanish because they lived too long, and are now surviving wholly on donations. Some of them are quite active yet, but they're almost totally incapable of getting a job because of their age.
