Because that would be discrimination. Don't you know that alcoholism is a decease? Or that obese people are victims of food companies that make tasty junk food? How can you deny coverage to victims?
Sarcasm aside, the bigger issue is that most of the medical spending goes into prolonging lives and not saving lives. Question is , why should we pay $300,000 so that someone lives 6 months longer? Would it be more fair when every individual chooses level of the coverage and if they want to live longer than God intended - they should pay for that.
