You're entitled to your own prejudices, but not to your own facts.
The most expensive costs are the result of AIDS and the walking whales (heart disease).
Second hand smoke is not even on the radar.

I should have said "among the most expensive..." AIDS---probably not the most expensive but up there among the worst offenders. Nevertheless, the number one cause of coronary heart disease is still smoking, not fat...which I'm sure is a close second.
From the AHA: cigarette smoking is the leading cause of heart and blood vessel problems among Americans."
And I would imagine that there are probably more
"whales" waddling around that smokers these days...so in terms of just numbers- more people incur heart disease from fat issues than from smoking.
Your other jab speaks volumes. What I object to is smokers doing their exhaling into their kids' faces/lungs. Kids get more upper respiratory problems...just adding to their misery. Look up the stats in the AMA.
