AMEN! To discriminate against people for doing something that is 100% LEGAL is sheer stupidity.

What about those who:
drink alcohol?
ride motorcycles without a helmet?
skydive?
The list can go on and on and on....

The list can go on and on, and it will.

Luckily, there is not a decades old, court-tested, tried and true way for an employer to find out what you’ve been putting into your body on your own time.

Yes, the list will go on and on, if we go down this road.

It’s easy to pick on smokers for this sort of thing. And it’s easy to say that they want to save tax dollars for health insurance. But, as noted, this sort of policy is wrongheaded on many levels, and could well lead us to places we don’t want to go.

I picked on homosexuals in my example, because I can just hear the outcry, if anyone ever applied this standard to them. But also because homosexuals as a group are prone to many sicknesses and diseases due to their voluntary behavior.

If we say that voluntary behavior, such as smoking or homosexual behavior, should be screened out due to health concerns, then those two behaviors should be treated the same.
