So can employers penalize them for higher insurance cost now like they do to smokers?

The problem is that gays smoke like chimneys also, you know, probably to get the taste out of their mouth.

As I see it, any behavior that results in higher insurance costs should be reimbursed by higher premiums to those engaging in that behavoir. Life insurance is higher for smokers, those overweight (great or small), those who have dangerous jobs, sky divers, etc. Auto insurance premiums are higher for those with DUIs... As I see it, insurance companies should be able to discriminate for the very purpose of staying in business.

I will be contacting my Attorney General to immediately begin lawsuits against homosexuals like he did against the tobacco industry. I will then contact my legislators and demand that they create a gay tax to keep children from starting the homosexual lifestyle.

Gay smokers might need to get a second job, if they can find one....
