People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals called on Blue Cross Blue Shield of Vermont to raise health insurance premiums for people who eat meat and lower the premiums for vegetarians, Plattsburgh, Vt., television station WPTZ reported.

In a letter sent Monday to Bill Milnes Jr., president of Blue Cross Blue Shield Of Vermont, PETA Executive Director Tracy Reiman urged Blue Cross to raise rates on meat eaters because, she said, heart disease, diabetes and other leading killer diseases have been conclusively linked to the consumption of meat and other animal products.

No it hasn't, responsible meet eating is just as healthly as going totally veg.

This is no different than other things they try to push, the only difference is they may actually pass this in a Democrat controlled congress.

Outcome: 100% of Vermonters claim vegetarian lifestyle, yet strangely, meat sales remain the same.

And vitamin deficiencies and other types of malnutrition have been associated with veganism, especially in children. The truth is that if meat eaters were a higher health risk, they would already have higher premiums.
