    You conveniently omitted the first part of the quote. And it's the one that makes all the difference. Read the start of this quote until the comma.

    “It will allow insurance companies to require people who have higher health care costs to contribute more to the insurance pool that helps offset all these costs, thereby reducing the cost to those people who lead good lives, they’re healthy, they’ve done the things to keep their bodies healthy,” explainedBrooks. “And right now, those are the people who have done things the right way that are seeing their costs skyrocketing.”

    The entire quote shows that the speaker clearly differentiates between those who "have higher health care costs" and "those people who lead good lives" and take care of themselves.

    "He and I differ on that because without the filibuster this country would've been gone a long time ago. I'm gonna talk to him about it. I'll get him back on line."

    It's a day for great GOP quotes: OMB director Mick Mulvaney held a conference call with reporters to tout the budget agreement as a big success for Trump. However, someone forgot to queue in the hold music as everyone waited for the call to start so more than one reporter heard Mulvaney tell an aide "This is going to be a disaster."
    I am starting to believe the administration is shaving points.
