Answer 2

All medical care should be a right.

Answer 3

It might make people think more about the consequences of unhealthy choices if they had to shoulder a larger portion of the bill.

A discount for healthy living would be even better.  Money off if you don't smoke and/or have a normal BMI.

Answer 4

so kinda like how people that have luxury, high-performance cars have to pay higher auto insurances because they chose to have cars that need to be insured for more since those cost more to repair?

sure. but i think most insurance companies want the positive publicity and so say "we lower premiums for healthy lifestyles" instead of "we give higher premiums to 'unhealthy' people"...because, the later can be construed as discriminatory
