trouble is smoking causes health troubles that cost every single
american big bucks for health care.

taxes on anything that causes health care costs should be increased to
cover those costs./
anything that causes health care costs

including fattening food etc

Very minor mention of overweight people yet related health care costs due
to that make smokers a small piece of the pie.

Yea I smoke. Yea it stinks. Yea someone has to make the bandwagon people
look good.

"anything that causes health care costs"...well, aging at any level
causes health care costs even if one lives a perfect life healthwise. �
So, raise taxes on people just for being a year older!

smoking is just plain stupid. so tax the heck out of it, to discourage
it and pay nthe excess health care costs.

bet if you get lung cancer, or any of the other problems you will
demand the best our health care system can provide? then pay for it as
you smoke yourself into a early grave

also tax fattening food thats causing obesity epidemic today, again
tax money tp pay for excess health care costs.

you know no one needs to smoke to live but everyone must eat to
live.......

obviously aging leads to death, but age healthfully........
