Personally I like cigarette smokers. The more they smoke, the less taxes I have to pay. Since it’s a free choice to smoke, we should not be punishing people who choose that activity by taxing them excessively. They are filling the government coffers everytime they buy a pack.

we also die earlier than non-smokers. i’m also doing my part to save YOUR social security, since you might live to be 90, and i probably will not.

Wasn’t there a European study which revealed that the lifetime medical bills of a non-smoker were significantly higher than those of a smoker because the average smoker died so much earlier?
