I smoke only 5-10 cigarettes per day, but get charged extra on my health insurance for it. My boss’s boss is hugely obese, we’re talking large pannus here, and she doesn’t get charged a dime extra.
That may change, because the policy is nationwide. I am laughing here, because it serves people right. How many would weigh a lot less, if they smoked 5 cigarettes per day? I’m guessing a number of them.
This is hilarious. It all depends on whose ox is gored, doesn’t it? The nanny state turns her disciplinary eye on the next “bad” group of kids.
Smoker here too. The number per day being about as relevant as globull warming considering I have a FRiend that will go to the ends of this earth to get his one a day at bedtime and he is considered a smoker by his Insurance Company as well. I also have Family that have smoked since they were 8-9 years old, Home Runs and Camel non-filtered, that have lived well into their 90's. It's about money and power. Blackbird.
