And all these years smokers have been paying high taxes on the cigarettes because of their healthcare.

A virtual Pandora’s Box of unintended consequences here. Either all of the state CHiP programs (which are funded by obscenely high cigarette taxes) go broke and leave THE CHILDREN without coverage, or smokers decide just to pay the penalty and buy coverage only after they get sick (as Obamacare gives them the right to do)

Either way the popcorn sales should be brisk.
