Yeah, no. Does cancer affect company's insurance costs, sure. But making the rise in cancer rates in younger people, a public health crisis experienced by individuals and families, into an aggregate bottom line issue for capitalists is dehumanizing. Throwing an aside comment about "the possible long term impacts on young people who have had to undergo cancer treatment," just makes it all the worse because they are acknowledging the human aspect is a concern, but they are still most concerned about the dollars and cents for businesses' insurance premiums. That part should be the footnote, not the headline.
