This guy is already targeting his over weight employee's. He's a control freak, that's all there is to it. Getting his face in the news for his "five minutes of fame." He and his attorney were on Fox News awhile back.
You are guessing here. Perhaps he wanted no smoking employees because his health care costs would be less. I never saw him on Fox so I don't know this but it makes perfect sense if he is picking up any portion of the health care benefit.
