Smoking is responsible for 10 percent of health care spending in Massachusetts.
Let's say 30% of health care money in Massachusetts goes for kids under 18. That leaves 70% of the health care pie for the adults.
Those supposedly healthy non-smokers are eating up 60% of the dough.
THEY ARE THE ONES BEING CARRIED BY THE SMOKERS!
Talk about unfair.
