Maybe I'm missing something here....why is it ok to
fire smokers because they are increasing health care costs,
but it is illegal to fire gays when they also increase health care costs? What about people who have diabetes?
The reason is irrelevant. It's OK to make conditions for employment, absent force.

The government has used force to pander to fags. Two wrongs don't make a right. Such laws are a violation of human rights. They should be abolished.
What about people who have diabetes?
Companies have discriminated against people with illnesses for a long time and such discrimination is entirely proper. For example, a company would be within it's rights to refrain from hiring people with bubonic plague.
Companies which have what the marketplace determines to be unreasonable restrictions will not be able to attract employees and will go out of business. The freemarket adjusts such things by it's nature. Absent force, these things get worked out easily without problems.
